We had a spark and we had fire
Kisses that sizzled on our lips
Beatnik poets rolled their own
Rich folks had filter tips
We had time enough to live forever
You lit me up with every beer
Devil may care like Bogey and Bacall
With a wink, a flick and a sneer
Now I'm only smoke
A faded second hand joke
Now I'm only smoke
Why am I banned from public places?
Made to hang round outside?
Tell me what it was I did to you
I never cheated and I never lied
Now I'm only smoke
A faded second hand joke
Now I'm only smoke
