Smoke in My Hair

Ashes, Rye & Cedar · All Smoke in Her Hair lyrics

Verse

I walked in clean and I won't walk out that way
Smoke in my hair like a secret I chose
You can smell the evening on me tomorrow
That's the only souvenir I never throw

Verse

Whiskey left a sweetness I didn't ask for
Cigar left a ribbon down the hall
I wear both like a slow kind of jewelry
I don't take off for just anyone at all

Chorus

Smoke in my hair, rye on my tongue
That's how you know I stayed too long
I didn't come to be saved or be taken
I came to hear a room become a song

Verse

Don't brush it out, don't open a window
Let it hang till it tells on my coat
Some girls leave perfume. I leave a weather
A little blue river in the throat

Bridge

If you find me in the morning
Don't ask me where I been
Just pour the coffee, light the quiet
And let the night stay on my skin

Chorus

Smoke in my hair, rye on my tongue
That's how you know I stayed too long
I didn't come to be saved or be taken
I came to hear a room become a song

Smoke in Her Hair, track by track
