tindersticks - black smoke lyrics

Loading...

i got shot down
black smoke in my lungs and in my eyes
black smoke in my feelings
black smoke that i leave behind

i got shot down
i told myself i was
greedy for it
i was greedy for it

i went down to the river
but the river’s drowned
i went down to the river
but the river’s choked in black smoke, black smoke

black smoke, black smoke
black smoke, black smoke
black smoke, black smoke
black smoke, black smoke

i was fooling around
i got flirting with that jangling
trying it on for size
i’m checking out my reflection

i got ground down
i went through the cogs of a giant mill, i was
greedy for it
i was greedy for it
i went down to the river
but the river’s drowned
i went down to the river
but the river’s choked in black smoke, black smoke

hey, on the vicar’s hands
black smoke, black smoke
on the apr+ns of midwives
black smoke, black smoke
in the streets and the chambers of where we
black smoke, black smoke
where we eked out our lives
black smoke, black smoke

i got ground down
i told myself i was
greedy for it
i was greedy for it

hey, i know i can see my feelings now
i can see the outline of my feelings now

hey, on the vicar’s hands
black smoke, black smoke
on the apr+ns of midwives
black smoke, black smoke
in the streets and the chambers of where we
black smoke, black smoke
where we eked out our lives
black smoke, black smoke
i got shot down
it was in the midnight hour, it was
like that slow song, slow song
it was so easy to dance to

hey, and we paid [?]
and we’d make love in the afternoon
as though nothing was wrong
as though nothing was
one+two+three
