Cigarettes and a lighter,
Lonely woman swinging door,
Broken pieces of a broken love affair,
I guess we've seen all that before.
Tonight she stares to the darkness,
Welcomes it back home again.
She'll cry every night til the day that she dies
If she don't find out how to let love in.
I need somebody to save me,
I need to learn how to fly.
A walk on the clouds with the angels,
Laugh when the devil cries.
I've got to take my chances,
Spend my nights in wild romances and hold on to what's
Holdin' on to me.
Repeat 1/2 Intro
Now doesn't this all seem familiar,
You said I took the words from your mouth.
Maybe if we sit and talk for awhile,
We just might work it all out.
And the hardest thing about leavin' is
Knowing when a friend is a friend.
A couple more drinks and I'll be on my way,
Sleeping and down, safe in your arms again.
Repeat Chorus
