lyrics

It would be so cool if, when you’re lonely and
You were loaded you, could smoke a cigarette
You were frozen there, like a silhouette
And someone took a snap, and maybe painted it
Like you were the only one, with a cigarette
In the dark wind, on the balcony
Like you were the only one, who was against the world
You were the only one, with a cigarette…

But it’s gone and it’s gone
Yet my life carries on ‘til the morning
And I’m still here
Yeah it’s gone and it’s gone
And my life carries on til the morning
And I’m still here
One last drag
My life is one last drag

It would be so cool if, when you’re lonely and
You were loaded you, could smoke a cigarette
You were frozen there, like a silhouette
And someone took a snap, and maybe painted it
Like you were the only one, alone and sexy
Only disregard, for the future
Like you were the only one, with a cigarette
You put the past in flames, and it suits ya!

But it’s gone and it’s gone
Yet my life carries on ‘til the morning
And I’m still here
Yeah it’s gone and it’s gone
And my life carries on ‘til the morning
And I’m still here

One last drag
My life is one last drag

It would be so cool if, when you’re over it
You could go for it, walk on water
Like you were the chosen one, with a smoking gun
Yeah the chosen one, and it suits ya

It would be so cool if, when you’re over it
You could go for it, walk on water
Like you were the chosen one, with a smoking gun
Yeah the chosen one, hope no one shoots ya!

Yeah I’ve been to Montreux, I lit my…
My cigarette up on the fire
Flame on the liquid, well I know…
Oh, all the promises it holds
