While a cigarette was burning
My heart was burning too
A smoke ring for your finger
A fashion in blue

While a cigarette was burning
Our smoke dreams all came through
We tried to make them linger
As lovers always do

From foolish dreams we walked
For love's choke that goes up in smoke
Now in each cigarette I see you yet

Somehow I shall never forget

While a cigarette was burning
We loved and laughed and learned
That hearts were made for breaking 
While a cigarette burned

While a cigarette was burning
We loved and laughed and learned
That hearts were made for breaking 
While a cigarette burned
