The Smokey Life Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've never seen your eyes so wide
I've never seen your appetite quite this occupied
Elsewhere is your feast of love
I know where long ago we agreed to keep it light
So let's be married one more night

[Chorus]
It's light, light enough
To let it go
It's light enough to let it go

[Bridge]
Remember when the scenery started fading
I held you 'til you learned to walk on air
So don't look down, the ground is gone
There's no one waving anyway
The smokey life is practiced everywhere

[Verse 2]
So set your restless heart at ease
Take a lesson from these autumn leaves
They waste no time waiting for the snow
Don't argue now, you'll be late
There is nothing to investigate

[Chorus]
It's light enough, light enough
To let it go
Light enough to let it go

[Bridge]
Remember when the scenery started fading
I held you 'til you learned to walk on air
So don't look down, the ground is gone
There's no one waving anyway
The smokey life is practiced everywhere

[Verse 3]
Come on back if the moment lends
You can look up all my very closest friends

[Chorus]
Light, light enough
To let it go
It's light, light enough to let it go
