Allan Gary Smoke Rings In The Dark Lyrics

Smoke Rings In The Dark Lyrics

Well, i won't make you tell me

What I've come to understand

You're a certain kind of woman

I'm a different kind of man

I've tried to make you love me

You're tried to find a spark

Of the flame that burned but somehow turned to

Smoke rings in the dark



The loneliness within me

Takes a heavy toll

Cause it burns as slow as whiskey

Through an empty aching soul

And the night is like a dagger

Long and cold and sharp

As I sit here on the front steps

Blowin' smoke rings in the dark



(Chorus)



I know I must be going

Cause love's already gone

And all I'm taking with me are the pieces of my heart

And all I'll leave are smoke rings in the dark



The rain falls where it wants to

The wind blows where it will

Everything on earth goes somewhere

But I swear we're standin' still

So I'm not gonna wake you

I'll go easy on your heart

I'll just touch your face and drift away

Like smoke rings in the dark



(Repeat Chorus
