[Vashti Bunyan - Holy Smoke lyrics]
I sigh with every breath I'm breathing
It's some kind of holy smoke
That I believe will take me on my way
Some hobo
The dust on my old boots is settling
And I'm slowly growing roots
I said would never tidy me away
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh
I do remember what an old friend told me
He said, "Don't you go worrying about me
I'm only sad as I want to be"
Well, that's as may be
But do I want to be like trees
Who stand 'round in freezing fog
Just waiting for the spring to come for me?
Oh, no, oh no oh, no, oh no
It's some kind of holy smoke
That I believe will take me on my way
Some hobo
The dust on my old boots is settling
And I'm slowly growing roots
I said would never tidy me away
Oh oh, oh oh oh oh, oh oh
I do remember what an old friend told me
He said, "Don't you go worrying about me
I'm only sad as I want to be"
Well, that's as may be
But do I want to be like trees
Who stand 'round in freezing fog
Just waiting for the spring to come for me?
Oh, no, oh no oh, no, oh no
