Where The Smoke Blows

Karine Polwart

4

Sometimes you just get caught where the smoke blows

And you just have to breathe it in until it all goes

Don't you know it'll all be gone when you're gone?

Sometimes a thing look shit on the inside

And from farther away it's the ebb and the flow of the tide

Don't you know it'll all be gone when you're gone?

A small mind with a big notion

Brought down to earth by the size of the ocean wide

Sometimes you just can't see what's bigger

When you're caught in the frame just a tiny figure

Don't you know it'll all be gone when you're gone?

Sometimes the thing you think you have your eyes on

Fades out of view on the far horizon

Don't you know it'll all be gone when you'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 they're only playing incidental parts

Don't you know it'll all be gone when you'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...
