cellboythis song would not of happened o_O
Two Cigarettes in the Dark (1934- Lew Pollack).
(Actually this is one of Bing's earlier songs... and very risque in it's time. He walked in on them. What were they wearing? Were they smoking "after sex?" Of course! How to skirt the censors. And notice, no genders mentioned.
I think I have this 78 somewhere (and the machines to play it on. No energy consumed, except the physical energy to wind them up).
Two, two cigarettes in the dark
He strikes a match 'til the
Spark clearly traces
One face is my sweetheart.
Two, two silhouettes in a room
Almost obscured by the gloom
We were so close yet so far apart,
It happened that I stumbled in
Upon their rendezvous.
I heard my sweetheart whispering
"I love you, I love you, you know that I do."
Two, two cigarettes in the dark,
Gone is the flame and the spark
Leaving just regrets and two cigarettes in the dark.
