Smoke in the Key of Blue

[Verse 1]

Red lipstick on the rim

Half a drink, going warm

You ask if I’m still waiting

I say, “I’ve waited through worse storms”

[Chorus]

Call me when the smoke turns blue

When the ashtray’s full of truth

When your hands stop shaking

From the lies you never used

Call me when the smoke turns blue

When the night runs out of room

I’ll be humming in the corner

Saving one last song for you

[Verse 2]

Your match flares, then it fades

Same story, different glass

You talk about forever

Like a rumor that won’t last

[Chorus]

Call me when the smoke turns blue

When the ashtray’s full of truth

When your hands stop shaking

From the lies you never used

Call me when the smoke turns blue

When the night runs out of room

I’ll be humming in the corner

Saving one last song for you
