Cigarette Smoke Lyrics

I knew a girl made of cigarette smoke
She wore winter around her like a warm overcoat
And she'd write, and she'd smile
And she'd write, and she'd laugh
And the smoke was her own sense of peace

Saved her lucky for last and exhaled a wish
That wisped and whispered, luminous
It curled, quiet against the night sky, and lingered

She says,
"Oh, baby breathe, baby please won't you breathe for me?
I am losing you slowly, but I'm yours to keep"

She would fumble for her lighter and light herself up
Nurse her vice between fingers that never knew lustCara Salimando - Cigarette Smoke - http://motolyrics.com/cara-salimando/cigarette-smoke-lyrics.html
Still she'd write, time to time
She would manage a smile
While her hope floats away in the breeze

She knew her luck couldn't last, still, she exhaled a wish
That wisped and whispered, luminous
It curled, quiet against the night sky
And still lingers

She says,
"Oh, baby breathe, baby please won't you breathe for me?
I am losing you slowly, but I'm yours to keep"
She says,
"Oh, baby breathe, baby please won't you breathe for me?
I am feeling so faithless, and so free, yeah, so free"
