Cigarette smoke on the blinds (version 2)

Verse

Old guitar strings against the windowpane

Cigarette smoke curling through the airframe

Your jacket on the chair where it always stays

Fading coffee cup with a ring in every way

I still remember how you'd sit and play

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know if this is holding me back

But your smile in the morning used to make me laugh

Chorus

Cigarette smoke on the blinds

Windows fog before it comes inside

Letting go feels like a test of time

I'm still standing here, but everything's left behind

Verse

Bare feet against the radiator's hum

Same old slippers worn down to nothing yet

That one song we used to play together slow

Every note still rings with your voice and I know

I never learned how to drive at night

Never saw a city that shone like you did

Pre-Chorus

And I don't know if this is holding me back

But your smile in the morning used to make me laugh

Chorus

Cigarette smoke on the blinds

Windows fog before it comes inside

Letting go feels like a test of time

I'm still standing here, but everything's left behind

Bridge

Maybe I've been holding this moment for too long

Maybe letting go is where we both belong

Chorus

Cigarette smoke on the blinds

Windows fog before it comes inside

Letting go feels like a test of time

I'm still standing here, but everything's left behind
