I tried to let go of my past but you won't let me be
I drink the liquor in this glass until your memory sinks
Inside my head all I see is your dark eyes
Down in my chest
Know it's gonna be a hard goodbye
Up in smoke dust trail down an old dirt road
Both said that we won't let go
But you left me all alone
Up up up up in smoke
Up in smoke tailights fade out real slow
Now I'm wishing I could hold you close
But the flame keeps burning on
Up up up up in smoke
I thought the whiskey in this bottle might just ease the pain
But you're a pill I couldn't swallow girl and I'm to blame
And keep me in mind if he don't do you right
Maybe next time we ain't gotta leave this fire
Up up up up in smoke
Up in smoke dust trail down an old dirt road
Both said that we won't let go
But you left me all alone
Up up up up in smoke
Up in smoke tailights fade out real slow
Now I'm wishing I could hold you close
But the flame keeps burning on
Aw yeah
Four bald tires are spinning down a gravel road
Damn I'm tired it might be time to let 'er go
Flames grow higher and higher as her memory goes
Up in smoke
Up up up up in smoke
Up in smoke dust trail down an old dirt road
Both said that we won't let go
But you left me all alone
Up up up up in smoke
Up in smoke tailights fade out real slow
Now I'm wishing I could hold you close
But the flame keeps burning on
Up up up up in smoke
