Lizzy and the Cigarette

Coming to me, begging to me She sits down at the bar As I'm listening I can feel her eyes Burning me a scar Asking for me, pleading with me Heaven knows I tried She's just looking for an excuse To take a step outside But I can't offer to you What you want from me All I can offer is my mind No, I can't offer to you What you need from me At least not tonight Oh Lizzy wants a cigarette Lizzy stands up next to me She looks around the room Her eyes stop on the corner When she sees the bride and groom Asking for me, pleading with me Her eyes get big and wide She asks "Oh won't you please Take a walk with me outside" But I can't offer to you What you want from me All I can offer is my time No, I can't offer to you What you need from me Just this story in my mind Of Lizzy and the cigarette Lizzy says it's all she wants Or else she doesn't care The smoke blows back into her face And settles in her hair Asking for me, pleading with me Wanting to forget All she needs is one more stupid Little cigarette Oh but then it starts to rain Pouring buckets of her pain But I can't offer to you What you want from me All I can offer is my mind No, I can't offer to you What you need from me At least not tonight Trying to forget She wants a cigarette Her pain goes to it's death Blows away in just one breath But I can't offer to you What you want from me All I can offer is my mind No, I can't offer to you What you need from me At least not tonight But I can't offer to you What you want from me All I can offer is my time No, I can't offer to you What you need from me Just this story in my mind Of Lizzy and the cigarette
