Don't you know that you're the only queen
Of this one-horse town?
You're the only one that meant a thing to me
You're still hanging around
You're still hanging around
I used to see you on the side walk
Standing in your high tops
Ruining your pretty lungs
With your cigarette smoke
It ain't keeping you young
Touch me like you know me
Baby when you're lonely
Kiss me on my open mouth
I'll throw you a rope
I'll keep you pulling you out
All the years that came and went for you
Are you feeling it now?
All the pretty things I tried to say to you
But when I opened my mouth
Nothing came out
I used to see you on the side walk
Standing in your high tops
Ruining your pretty lungs
With your cigarette smoke
It ain't keeping you young
Touch me like you know me
Baby when you're lonely
Kiss me on my open mouth
I'll throw you a rope
I'll keep you pulling you out
Hey, Celine
I open up my heart
It's all for you
You can take or leave me any way you choose
Hey, Celine
I open up my heart
It's all for you
You can take or leave me any way you choose
I used to see you on the side walk
Standing in your high tops
Ruining your pretty lungs
With your cigarette smoke
It ain't keeping you young
Touch me like you know me
Baby when you're lonely
Kiss me on my open mouth
I'll throw you a rope
I'll keep you pulling you out
Hey, Celine
I open up my heart
It's all for you
You can take or leave me any way you choose
Hey, Celine
I open up my heart
It's all for you
You can take or leave me any way you choose
Hey, Celine
I open up my heart
It's all for you
You can take or leave me any way you choose
