Smokers Reflect

The two black spots in your left eye Are from staring in the sun They follow everywhere you look Like a crosshair on a gun You're lighting one more cigarette The last one of the pack Reflecting on your life a bit Oh you should be doing this With somebody you love Scanning purple sunrise Before you crawl to bed And hearing Leonard Cohen sigh Is as deep as it will get Future is like burning time The past abiding steam And the woman that is here tonight Is a stranger with a dream Oh you should be doing this With somebody you love Oh you're oversimplifying So often you have pushed away Until a lonely spring Comes tell you certain things There is no use in denying It's so true what they say That when the tide is high You'll jump and frolic and then you'll dive Until it pulls away Well everyone's at war it seems You need a mini truce And a screw to fix the mantelpiece Cause it's still hanging loose The last thought of the morning As the crimson turns grey You put yourself on warning like You're doing every day Oh you should be doing this With somebody you love --- Smokers Reflect - dEUS
