Cigarette Smoke My Christmas Story
I’m sitting here smoking a cigarette
with you on my mind.
There’s noting I can now do about
our quarrel.
The telephone won’t help me say
I’m sorry.
I need to look into your eyes and say
I’m sorry.
I’m sorry for the hurt I gave you
last night.
Darling, I sorry for the anger I
showed you.
This is heavy on my mind as I
smoke my cigarette.
I want to tell you that I love you
more than life.
I want to tell you that you’re the
world to me.
I want to meet you on Christmas day
and erase hard feelings.
I want to hold your hand and ask
forgiveness.
Can’t we start over as though this
had not happened?
