Cigarette - Laura Bell Bundy

Shoulda stayed lonely, shoulda stayed bored and broken

I shoulda been alright just for the night

But this noise in my head, on my cold empty bed

Makes me need somethin' to pass the time

Damn this old weakness, the first taste of sweetness

The lump in my throat, ya give a girl enough rope

I shoulda let my hair down for dancing

Shoulda wrapped myself in a blanket

Shoulda been drinkin' just to forget

Shoulda left my lipstick on a cigarette

Tried to put you out, tried to clear the air

But I’m breathin' your breath as I die a slow death

What burns like a flash is ashes to ashes

Shoulda let my hair down for dancing

Shoulda wrapped myself in a blanket

Shoulda been drinkin' just to forget

Shoulda left my lipstick on a cigarette

Shoulda closed my eyes to dream

About you holdin' me

Shoulda let my hair down for dancing

Shoulda wrapped myself in a blanket

Shoulda been drinkin' just to forget

Shoulda left my lipstick on a cigarette

Shoulda left my lipstick on a cigarette
