Lyrics Smoke - Todd Rundgren

Smoke

It happened so fast
The blink of an eye
I never intended to
Go flying so high
Nothing was serious
Then it caught fire
Tried to stay cool
But the heat just get higher
Trapped in a tinderbox
Of rage and desire
The friction was so intense
Then we caught fire
We were aflame
Starshine was here to stay
Then it faded away
And it all went up in smoke
Life was cherries flambe
But that was so yesterday
Then it all went up in smoke
Now here am I
Kicking the ashes
Of a memory gone by
Things got too serious
Then they caught fire
Now I’ve been burned
I’m a bit wiser
A place in the shade
Is all I require
Yet I’m still hypnotized
When I see fire
We were aflame
Starshine was here to stay
Then it faded away
And it all went up in smoke
Life was cherries flambe
But that was so yesterday
Then it all went up in smoke
It all went up in smoke
All went up in smoke
All went up in smoke
All went up in smoke
Then it all went up in smoke
Then it all went up in smoke
We were aflame
Starshine was here to stay
Then it faded away
And it all went up in smoke
Life was cherries flambe
But that was so yesterday
Then it all went up in smoke
Then it all went up in smoke
Then it all went up in smoke
