Smoke — текст песни (Peter Mulvey)

Sometimes I feel like the man
I think you think I am
These days I am mourning the loss
of a dream that I don`t understand

Time is a lens
I see you now
Your hair blown by winds from afar

Sometimes don`t you feel like the woman
You think I think you are

It`s just smoke
But it`s in flesh in blood we deal
And you can`t go your whole life denying the things you feel

I held you up like an angel
Sewn you down on my life
I tell no one else you could compare
To the myth who should have been my wife
And now I`m trying to shake you
Alone beneath this roof
But you stay like a mark on my breast
Though I burn every shred of proof

It`s just smoke
But it`s in flesh in blood now we live
Maybe those sweet kisses were never really ours to give

I`ve been wrestling with the moon and her tides
The curve of her breast
Her hair falls like rain
The laugh the sigh the smile now
These things aching me like a lost memory gained and
I have seen what I have seen in this lifetime
Just dreaming you looked over my shoulder

I`m older now
Maybe we can let this shit
Let it smolder
I need smoke
Cause it`s in flesh in blood now I stand
I won`t be haunted any longer by the dreams I do not understand
