Where The Smoke Blows - Karine Polwart

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...
