Amidst the wavering night tide
A stone, cold silence caressed the air
No echo beyond an audible level,
Peace cradled the night
Underneath the crowing esophagus
Her acoustic guitar she strummed
As upon the pacifying vapor of a cigarette
Her lips fervently clasped
‘Twas a minor hint of nicotine
Born just of this woman's breath
As gently a waft of smoke
Waltzed across the horizon
Serenading the stars in slumber
And all night she'd sing songs
Speaking tales of great misfortune
Around a sacred fire of devotion
To spread love & peace
All across the valley
A stone, cold silence caressed the air
No echo beyond an audible level,
Peace cradled the night
Underneath the crowing esophagus
Her acoustic guitar she strummed
As upon the pacifying vapor of a cigarette
Her lips fervently clasped
‘Twas a minor hint of nicotine
Born just of this woman's breath
As gently a waft of smoke
Waltzed across the horizon
Serenading the stars in slumber
And all night she'd sing songs
Speaking tales of great misfortune
Around a sacred fire of devotion
To spread love & peace
All across the valley
