Second Hand Smoke

VERSE
I ain’t lightin’ up, but I’m breathing you in.
With that perfect smile you’re out dressed to kill me again.
You’d think three years clean would be plenty of time.
Oh you’ve been out of sight, I’ve been out of my mind.

CHORUS
I kicked the habit,
I’m back in control.
I’m over you and better alone,
But you’re still hangin’ around –
Like second hand smoke.

VERSE
Just like an addict, I used to be hooked on you.
And the fire burned hot until you found somebody new.
Now watchin’ the smoke rise in the neon glow –
It’s bad for heart – like you, it burns in my soul.

CHORUS
I kicked the habit,
I’m back in control.
I’m over you and better alone,
But you’re still hangin’ around –
Like second hand smoke.

BRIDGE
Another guy like me would fall victim to you first hand.
I’m glad to know – I’m not still that man.

CHORUS
I kicked the habit,
I’m back in control.
I’m over you and better alone,
But you’re still hangin’ around –
I kicked the habit,
I’m back in control.
I’m over you and better alone,
But you’re still hangin’ around –
Like second hand smoke.
you’re still hangin’ around –
I guess you’ll always be around –
you’re still hangin’ around –
Like second hand smoke.
