Burning Without a Trace

She’s the shadow you chase but never catch, the flame that flickers then fades. Lady Smoke isn’t just a name; she’s a feeling, a mystery you can’t hold, a flame that burns wild and free.

Verse 1

She’s a shadow, slipping through the night,

Close enough to touch, then out of sight.

Her laugh’s a whisper, soft and low,

Leaves you chasing what you’ll never know.

Verse 2

Moves like fog that melts with dawn,

No footprints left when she is gone.

You think you’ve caught her, but it’s a joke.

She fades away—that’s Lady Smoke.

Pre-Chorus

Every step, a question marks the air,

You reach, but she’s already nowhere.

Chorus

You’re like Lady Smoke, slipping through my hands,

Burning up the night, breaking all the plans.

I chase the flame, though I know it’ll break,

’Cause when you’re gone, there’s only smoke left in your wake.

Verse 3

She’s the spark that sets the dark on fire,

A fleeting touch, a whispered desire.

You’re drawn into her smoky haze,

Lost inside her twisted maze.

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

Bridge

You’re the secret no one ever finds,

A mystery lost between the lines.

I’m hooked on the chase, addicted to the fire,

Lady Smoke, you’re my one desire.

Outro

Burning fast and fading slow,

Lady Smoke, I can’t let go.
