Out of Sight, Out of Mind!

A brand-new year, it begins right now
Take a moment for yourself
Perhaps you’ve been contemplating for quite a long while
That now is the time to improve your health

You may have committed with a resolution or two
So let's take it to the next step
Seek out support and get ready to quit
But first let's do some important prep

Get rid of all tobacco, cigarettes, cigars, the lot
All on its way to the bin
Ash trays, lighters, rolling papers as well
That’s your first big WIN!

Wow, that felt good and you won`t be tempted
Out of sight, out of mind is the key
Keep busy, don`t look back
Feel unburdened and feel free

Smoking is a trap, and it keeps you tied
Shackled to the routines that keep you hooked
Keep going forward, you’re doing great
Here's some reasons you may have overlooked

First is your blood pressure returning to normal
It only takes 20 minutes smoke free
The benefits carry on every day you are quit
What a great future you’re beginning to see

Some extra money is now being saved
So, your family is benefiting too
Second hand smoke from your cigarettes
Is no longer coming from you!

You’ve considered a different perspective
A new choice, it gets easier you will find
Your resolution is firm, keep strong now that
Smoking is out of sight and out of mind!
