Cigarette Lyrics

by Laura Bell Bundy

Shoulda stayed lonely, shoulda stayed bored and broken
I shoulda been alright just for the night
But this noise in my head, on my cold empty bed

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e127708-laura_bell_bundy~cigarette_lyrics.html ]
Makes me need somethin' to pass the time
Damn this old weakness, the first taste of sweetness
The lump in my throat, ya give a girl enough rope

I shoulda let my hair down for dancing
Shoulda wrapped myself in a blanket
Shoulda been drinkin' just to forget
Shoulda left my lipstick on a cigarette

Tried to put you out, tried to clear the air
But I'm breathin' your breath as I die a slow death
What burns like a flash is ashes to ashes

Shoulda let my hair down for dancing
Shoulda wrapped myself in a blanket
Shoulda been drinkin' just to forget
Shoulda left my lipstick on a cigarette

Shoulda closed my eyes to dream
About you holdin' me

Shoulda let my hair down for dancing
Shoulda wrapped myself in a blanket
Shoulda been drinkin' just to forget
Shoulda left my lipstick on a cigarette
Shoulda left my lipstick on a cigarette
