Where The Smoke Blows lyrics
by Karine Polwart
Sometimes you just get caught where the smoke blows
And you just have to breathe it in until it all goes
DonÂ’t you know itÂ’ll all be gone when youÂ’re gone?
Sometimes a thing look sh*t on the inside
And from farther away itÂ’s the ebb and the flow of the tide
DonÂ’t you know itÂ’ll all be gone when youÂ’re gone?
A small mind with a big notion
Brought down to earth by the size of the ocean wide
Sometimes you just canÂ’t see whatÂ’s bigger
When youÂ’re caught in the frame just a tiny figure
DonÂ’t you know itÂ’ll all be gone when youÂ’re gone?
Sometimes the thing you think you have your eyes on
Fades out of view on the far horizon
DonÂ’t you know itÂ’ll all be gone when youÂ’re gone?
A small mind with a big lie
Brought down to earth by the size of the sky
All the men with enormous heads and tiny hearts
In the end theyÂ’re only playing incidental parts
DonÂ’t you know itÂ’ll all be gone when youÂ’re gone?
A small mind with a big notion
Brought down to earth by the ocean
A small mind with a big lie
Brought down to earth by the size of the sky
Sometimes you just get caught where the smoke blows
Where the smoke blows, where the smoke blows...
