There's an ashtray sittin' on the table
Half-full of cigarettes I don't recall
It's been there longer than my coffee
Longer than the picture on the wall
I swear it's seen more heartbreak
Than a country song on radio
It's held every word I couldn't say
And every fire that's lost its glow
I could toss it out tomorrow
But we've come too far to part
It's the last thing left around here
That's still smokin' like my heart
I'm holdin on (Yes sir)
I'm holdin on
I'm holding
Just holding on
This old ashtray has seen it all
From good love to a bad last call
It's holdin' on
To all I've thrown away
It's just me and my old ashtray
Well, I could throw it out
But what's the use
It knows me better
Than my own excuse
There ain't no point
In changin' now
We've both seen too much anyhow
