Holy Smoke Lyrics

Vashti Bunyan Holy Smoke

[Verse 1]
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

[Refrain 1]
Oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh, oh oh
[Verse 2]
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?

[Refrain 2]
Oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no
