terry scott taylor - blowing smoke lyrics

[spoken intro]
“when i’m blowing smoke” is one of the handful of songs that i’ve written about my family and the life of my family. more personal that way. the smoke being referred to in this song is jive talk–it’s like joking or silly pontificating, you know, which i’m pr-ne to do around my family. and i wanted to capture that moment of jesting, you know, with a more serious reflection of family life and those moments of real contentment, when a sense of love and yearning to embrace them all and keep them forever kind of rushes over us.

[verse 1]
when i’m blowing smoke
she’ll be laughing at my jokes
she could always get the joke
i’ll tell the world i love her

[chorus 1]
when i lose my place
one foot in the human waste
gentle understanding heart
will move me back again
to my lover and my friend

[verse 2]
when i’m blowing smoke
or when i’m at the end of my rope
she cuts the line and offers me hope
no shame to say i need her

[chorus 2]
and our children smile
at their father-child
and the dreamy days roll by
they bring me home again
to my lover and my friend
when i’m blowing smoke

[bridge]
and i will find her
where love binds her
god surrounds her
and keeps her in that holy place

[verse 1]
she’ll be laughing at my jokes
she could always get the joke
i’ll tell the world i love her

[chorus 2]
and our children smile
at their father-child
and the dreamy days roll by
they bring me home again
to my lover and my friend

[outro]
when i’m blowing smoke
when i’m blowing smoke
when i’m blowing smoke
when i’m blowing smoke
