Once in a while I smoke

I light up a cigarette.
One off the pack that you left
It makes me sick,
and it always has.
But habits have a difficult death;
For you, to quit
and me, to feel you close.

Once in a while
is it that I light a cigarette
Once in a while
is it that I take that route
Once in a while
why, is it that I see you close?

And for the taste
you left with me,
But I sip some liquid
as I smoke
I see that bottle of wine
you left uncorked
it is just for your taste, that I lit a smoke

Once in a while
I know, I asked you to quit
Once in a while
I faltered and lit along
Once in a while
for you, I carry some fire to the port

May be to finish that bottle
or just help me quit
its unhealthy you know-
this habit and the one to smoke.
Either way, it makes me so sick.
But I promise not to light, for
you are the remedy and my reason to be lit

Once in a while
Is it that I light a cigarette
Once in a while
Is it that I take that route
Once in a while
just to feel you close
Just, just to feel you close
