I watch the smoke untangle Itself from your cigarette I keep my mouth wide open I'm trying to catch your breath This is a pre-disaster You're poring over photographs I think I know what comes after But I'm too afraid to ask We'll quit smoking After this cigarette We'll quit smoking But I don't want to yet You won't come over And I'll go to an empty bed But I think we're addicted To more than just the cigarette Of course I received your letter But I don't know what it said I think it reads much better If it remains unread 'Cause after I feared your brother I came to love him, too And although there may be others I get no rush like you We'll quit smoking After this cigarette We'll quit smoking But I don't want to yet You won't come over And I'll go to an empty bed But I think we're addicted To more than just the cigarette Oh, such a strange devotion I don't wanna call your bluff I'm drowning in the strangest ocean But I don't wanna call it love Oh, such a perfect comedown From such a perfect day You rest your head on my shoulder Everything fades away
