Gin and Cigarettes
Shoshana Bean

She sits alone at the end of a table

Much too big for one

Once there were parties

The glasses and chairs were full

Now the glamour's gone

Nothing but time to build a case for regret

Nothing but time for gin and cigarettes


Mem'ries repeat with each skip of the record

Long forgotten dreams

Music that played as a soundtrack throughout her life

Keeps her company

Drinking to remember, drinking to forget

Drinking gin and smoking cigarettes


Children grow and leave they tell you


Your best has left them scarred

Husbands are no better

They only have so many ticks in their hearts


Watching the birds as they fly past her window

Through the smoke her eyes burn

Even though life clipped her wings oh so long ago

Still the heart it yearns

Soon there's not enough to ease the pain

And she's drowning, drowning

She made her choices, she hedged her bets

Now all that's left is gin and cigarettes
