Walking to your house in 1989
11 cigarettes keep to tell they can pain inside
I'm gonna take back the records
That I gave to you last year
'Cause don't you ever leave me now
Made it to your ears

Walking to your house in 1989
Mother's in the garden, "Ma'am, I beg you pardon
Is your daugter home?"
She said she'd be gone for an hour or two
I'm surprised she's not with you
And I smiled, I smiled, you smiled
When you're about to cry
11 cigarettes burnin' away
15 to get me to the end of the day
Five minutes just to watch it all turn to grey
Five years of looking back to yesterday
The time it takes each smoke to burn
Is time enough to learn
That first time lover sometimes fade away

Walking from your house in 1989
Some moment got faces extra on my mind
And I know what they sayin' is come down true
And I know the years with you
And for the first time in 16 years
I think I wanna die
11 cigarettes burnin' away
15 just to get me to the end of the day
Five minutes just to watch it all fade to grey
Five years of looking back to yesterday
The time it takes each smoke to burn
Is time enough to learn
