Chesterfield King - Face To Face

We stood in your room and laughed out loud

Suddenly the laughter died

And we were caught in an eye to eye

We sat on the floor and did we sit close

I could smell your thoughts and thought

Do you want to touch a lot like me?

Too scared to say a thing

I left your house and kicked myself

I put those feelings on a shelf to die

I guess I’m not a gambling type

But think of what the two of us had lost

I needed some time to think it out

7-Eleven parking lot

A toothless woman turned and stopped

I gave her a dime and a Chesterfield

She leaned down and kissed my cheek

I was scared but it felt sweet

Felt so sweet

She asked me if I had a name

I told her I was glued up on some chick

We sat and smoked against the wall

Drank a beer, felt the chill of fall

I took my car and drove it down the hill by your house

I drove so fast

The wind, it couldn’t cool me down

So I turned it around and came back up

You were waiting on your step

Steam showing off your breath

And water in your eyes

We pulled each other into one

Parkas clinging on the lawn and kissed right there

Said, «My chicks, they smoke these things.»

And handed you a Chesterfield King

Held your hand and watched TV

And traced the little lines along your palm

I took my car and drove it down the hill by your house

I drove so fast

The wind, it couldn’t cool me down

So I turned it around and came back up

You were waiting on your step

Steam showing off your breath

And water in your eyes

We pulled each other into one

Parkas clinging on the lawn and kissed right there
