Lyrics

[Verse]
In the dim light of the speakeasy glow
I found you by the piano's flow
You lit a cigarette with a lazy grace
Smoke curling up as you hid your face

[Verse 2]
The band was swinging like a tempest in a storm
You leaned in close keeping me warm
The rhythm took us to a world so grand
A wisp of smoke caught by your hand

[Chorus]
Light it up baby oh make it bright
Let that fire burn all through the night
In the haze of smoke we'll find delight
Lighting cigarettes feeling just right

[Bridge]
With every puff we danced and swayed
In the shadows where music played
A matchstick flicker brief and wild
Igniting dreams like a carefree child

[Verse 3]
Bright lights fading in the room's perfume
Jazz notes floating like a sweetly plumed plume
We burned that night with a fierce desire
Our cigarettes blazing higher and higher

[Chorus]
Light it up baby oh make it bright
Let that fire burn all through the night
In the haze of smoke we’ll find delight
Lighting cigarettes feeling just right
