Song information
This song is a tribute to those wild, wonderful days when a bunch of us would head off into the bush, backpacks loaded, spirits high. We'd hike until sunset, pitch our tents under the stars, and gather ‘round the fire with guitars, laughter, and enough drinks to fuel some truly unforgettable nights. I’ll admit I sometimes took things a bit too far, but that was all part of the charm back then.

It’s dedicated to the friends who shared those adventures with me - the hikes, the stories, the songs. Two of them, Sarah and Tom, are no longer with us, but their memory still walks beside me on every trail that I continue to walk along.

Lyrics
Title: 'Smoke in My Hair' by Mojca Czarka

Verse 1
The stars leaned in through the gumtree light,

As we circled close and the fire took flight.

Ash on my jeans and red wine in my cup,

You told that old story we never let up.

Verse 2

Sarah danced barefoot, glass in her hand,

Tom fell backwards trying to stand.

We laughed 'til it hurt, I wiped my eyes,

Someone burned the marshmallows, not a soul was surprised.

Chorus
And the smoke in my hair,

Still smells like the night we had there.

With our hearts unguarded, voices wide,

Singing out loud with nothing to hide.


Instrumental

Verse 3

You played that tune on the old guitar,

The one that travels wherever we are.

I sang the harmony, soft and low,

The kind of love only old friends know.

Chorus
And the smoke in my hair,

Still smells like the night we had there.

With our hearts unguarded, voices wide,

Singing out loud with nothing to hide.


[Outro]

Now I sit alone, but I’m never far
From that fire, that laughter, just where you are.

And when I breathe in the cold night air

I still find the smoke in my hair.

Man this song brings back memories of party nights under the desert stars, sitting 'round
the campfire, knocking back a brew or three, waiting for the L S D to fully kick in, listening to
our fave bands on the pick up truck's eight track stereo... hoping we don't run the battery down.
The late 1960s were a long long time ago. A lot of changes since then. Several of those friends
have passed on. Only a few of us left to remember and share a laugh at how foolish and reckless
we all were. I'd like to think we're still here because we moved on to better, saner things; but I
still, on occasion, look back at those moments in time with a measure of fondness...
See what you did with your AMAZING song-writing? Lol...
Absolutely LOVE this!
When your CD comes out tell me how I can purchase a copy!
Be well frind!
