Leave the Smoke
Leave the smoke when you go
I want the room to keep a little of you
Not your jacket, not your number
Just the weather a man can do
Don't tidy the tray, don't rinse the glass
I like evidence I didn't imagine the hour
A coal still living is a kinder souvenir
Than a promise that goes sour
Leave the smoke, take your hat
That's a fair and adult trade
I can hold a evening without holding a person
That's the only kind I ever made
If you write, write later, write less
Don't turn this into a plan in the lot
I was honest in the low light
Morning is a different god
I'm not cold. I'm exact
There's a difference you can taste
I let you in the hour
I don't let you in the place
Leave the smoke, take your hat
That's a fair and adult trade
I can hold a evening without holding a person
That's the only kind I ever made
