Lyrics

Cigarette Lit (Lyrics)

This song remains unreleased. This is a B-side taken from "Some Devil" In a Guitar World interview, Dave is quoted as saying, "With Some Devil, there was one song we axed called "Cigarette Lit," which despite being a great song didn't end up on the album because it was slightly oversized; it's chest was a little too full compared to everything else. When I rejected it, I asked myself, 'Am I being a moron?' Now, I'm happy with that decision. Sometimes you have to let things be what they are."

Cigarette lit, my plan's to quit
and I know I can but I know I will forget it
Stuck here, I need something quick
Jus' to stop me thinking

Always out
Always in
It's calling to me...

Excuse me, please
What have you got
t'get me out of my head
while I've still got the courage
And not so out, just out enough
'till i feel like I'm taking off

The rain falls down, I'm not alone
Covers all of us with silver light
In silver light, and all, I beg you, stay with me
Let it rain all night

What a gift, this short visit
I know I'll go just as quick as I came in
matchstick, my finger tip
To stop me thinking

Always out
Always in
It's coming to me

Excuse me please
What have you got?
Get me out of my head
while I've still got the courage
And not so out,
just out enough
'Till I feel like I'm taking off

When the rain fall down, it's all alone
And covered all of us with silver light
In silver light and all, i beg you, stay with me
Let it rain all night

I'm always out
Always in
It's calling to me

And not so out,
just out enough
'Till I feel like I'm takin' off

And the rain falls down, I'm not alone
And covers all of us in silver light
in silver light and all, I beg you, stay with me
Let it rain all night, oh

The rain falls down, I'm not alone
It covers all of us in a silver light
In silver light, and lord I beg you, stay with me
Let it rain all night
