| Every invincible letter
|
| Comes singing in the sky
|
| Promised song and foot fledged
|
| And a brilliant flash of light
|
| But oh the bells, oh the bells
|
| Cracking itself in halfway room to cold
|
| So this is where the smoke comes from
|
| This is where the smoke comes from
|
| And its getting close I know
|
| When all of the lights outside are low
|
| And you sat down at my side
|
| And you whispered soft and slow
|
| That before you can protest again
|
| The car will take us home, my friend
|
| Lay your head down and sleep awhile
|
| When you wake we’ll be home
|
| Well, I wish that I was what you wanted to be
|
| Wrapped up tight underneath your tree
|
| And I taught myself like the high E string
|
| So that when you pluck I sing
|
| So this is where the smoke comes from
|
| Oh, this is where the smoke comes from
|
| And its getting close I know
|
| When all of the tree silhouettes all glow
|
| And you sat down on my side
|
| And you lay your hands on mine
|
| Singing softly
|
| That before you can protest again
|
| The car will take us home my friend
|
| Lay your head down and sleep awhile
|
| When you wake we’ll be home |
