Blowin' Smoke Lyrics - Singles - David Ball

Beneath this neon haze here in this honky tonk 

I tell everyone who'll listen I don't miss her being gone 

I've got a big smile painted on my face that's all I see 

Guess there ain't no limit to what some people will believe 

I say I've burned her memory but I'm just blowin' smoke 

There's embers in the ashes that haven't yet grown cold 

In the darkness here I hide a tear hoping it don't show 

Well I say I burned her memory but I know, I'm just blowin' smoke 

I don't want to face the truth that I'm still in love with her 

So I tell 'em she's just history as far as I'm concerned 

Got over her the minute that she walked out the door 

I just look 'em in the eye and lie that's what honky-tonks are for 

I say I've burned her memory but I'm just blowin' smoke 

There's embers in the ashes that haven't yet grown cold 

In the darkness here I hide a tear hoping it don't show 

Well I say I burned her memory but I know, I'm just blowin' smoke 

I can fool 'em one I can fool 'em all I play the part so well 

I'd give all I ever owned if I could only fool myself 

I say I've burned her memory but I'm just blowin' smoke 

There's embers in the ashes that haven't yet grown cold 

In the darkness here I hide a tear hoping it don't show 

Well I say I burned her memory but I know, I'm just blowin' smoke 

Well I say I burned her memory but I know, I'm just blowin' smoke
