Cigarettes

I could take my hat and turn it backwards

I could go online and learn a bad word for you

I could buy you flowers, you could throw 'em away

I'll dig 'em out the trash and I will give 'em to you anyway

And if it breaks our hearts

Then at least we tried

We're young 'til the day

Love shook grinnin' from your ear to ear

Come a little closer, you know I got somethin' I wanna hear

Just tell me somethin', baby, I got somethin' to prove

Whisper in my ear and give me somethin', give me somethin' to lose

(Give me somethin' to lose)

To lose

We've been workin' hard for a half-smoked cigarette

We've been playin' cards, makin' memories you won't forget

We can just be kids in a cardboard castle

We can just be young, play it dumb for a year or two

And if it breaks our hearts

Then at least we tried

We're young 'til the day

Workin' on our final drop of gasoline

The half-spilled caffeine, spillin' into our bloodstream, ourbloodstream

Take your right hand and point it to the clouds

We're livin' on a prayer, but we have yet to sort the endin' out

Won't you sort it out for me, baby

We've been workin' hard for a half-smoked cigarette

We've been playin' cards, makin' memories we won't forget

We can just be kids in a cardboard castle

We can just be young, play it dumb for a year or two

And if it breaks our hearts

Then at least we tried

We're young 'til the day we die

So just forget what your father told you of love

We've only got a half-a-hundred trips around the sun

And if you love me the way that I love you

Well, we should run to a Church and tear out the seats and the pues

We've got our whole lives to work on our 401

So while we still have our shadows, let's try to outrun the sun

So just forget what your father told you of truth

We could live here forever, stuck in the days of our youth

We're young 'til the day

We've been workin' hard for a half-smoked cigarette

We've been playin' cards, makin' memories we won't forget

We can just be kids in a cardboard castle

We can just be young, play it dumb for a year or two

And if it breaks our hearts

Then at least we tried

We're young 'til the day we die
