I Don't Smoke
I heard you're back from the dead
Slick hair and a cigarette
Don't you know them things'll finally kill you yet?
And you always loved a good rumour
So I let em talk, but don't let it go to your head
I only see you when the sun sinks low
Where the cowboys run and the vampires roll
You talk to 'em like you're something to believe in
But where are you going when the morning comes?
I've been dancing with a ghost
Reaching out for what I can't hold
I've been running down the night
Chasing what I'll never find
But tonight I'm drinking alone
I'm lighting up my last Marlboro
And when you're coming 'round, you'll figure out
I don't dance with ghosts and I don't smoke
I heard the Devil drives a Chevrolet
He picked you up on the corner of main
And you've been burning rubber and a pack a day
The truth is it's a fool
Who falls for a trick of the light, so if you're asking me
I've been dancing with a ghost
Reaching out for what I can't hold
I've been running down the night
Chasing what I'll never find
But tonight I'm drinking alone
I'm lighting up my last Marlboro
And when you're coming 'round, you'll figure out
I don't dance with ghosts and I don't smoke
I've been dancing with a ghost
Reaching out for what I can't hold
I've been running down the night
Chasing what I'll never find
But tonight I'm drinking alone
I'm lighting up my last Marlboro
And when you're coming 'round, you'll figure out
You'll figure out
Ah you'll figure it out
I don't dance with ghosts and I don't smoke
No, no, no
Ohh, ohh
Slick hair and a cigarette
Don't you know them things'll finally kill you yet?
And you always loved a good rumour
So I let em talk, but don't let it go to your head
I only see you when the sun sinks low
Where the cowboys run and the vampires roll
You talk to 'em like you're something to believe in
But where are you going when the morning comes?
I've been dancing with a ghost
Reaching out for what I can't hold
I've been running down the night
Chasing what I'll never find
But tonight I'm drinking alone
I'm lighting up my last Marlboro
And when you're coming 'round, you'll figure out
I don't dance with ghosts and I don't smoke
I heard the Devil drives a Chevrolet
He picked you up on the corner of main
And you've been burning rubber and a pack a day
The truth is it's a fool
Who falls for a trick of the light, so if you're asking me
I've been dancing with a ghost
Reaching out for what I can't hold
I've been running down the night
Chasing what I'll never find
But tonight I'm drinking alone
I'm lighting up my last Marlboro
And when you're coming 'round, you'll figure out
I don't dance with ghosts and I don't smoke
I've been dancing with a ghost
Reaching out for what I can't hold
I've been running down the night
Chasing what I'll never find
But tonight I'm drinking alone
I'm lighting up my last Marlboro
And when you're coming 'round, you'll figure out
You'll figure out
Ah you'll figure it out
I don't dance with ghosts and I don't smoke
No, no, no
Ohh, ohh
