Smoke Rings and Heartstrings

[Verse] In the haze of the dim lit room Where the air is thick with sweet perfume (mm-mm) I light a cigarette Take a slow drag As the smoke rings swirl and my heart begins to sag (oh-oh) [Verse] With each puff I exhale memories of you Like smoke rings that slowly fade from view (fade away) But the love we had lingers in the air Leaving a bittersweet taste of despair (oh-oh-oh) [Chorus] Smoke rings and heartstrings intertwine As I drown my sorrows in whiskey and wine (oh-yeah) From the ashtray to my lips I cling To the illusion that you're still my everything (oh, baby) [Verse 2] Smoke rings swirling in the hazy air A lonely barstool A vacant stare (stare) Trying to hold on to a love that won't amend [Chorus] Smoke rings and heartstrings intertwine As I drown my sorrows in whiskey and wine (oh-yeah) From the ashtray to my lips I cling To the illusion that you're still my everything (oh, baby) [Sweet solo]
