See the soul of a solider boy, keepin' time
Seems, that he can't find
What it is, in his mind
That makes the whiskey
                      taste so fine
He had the music of the band
In his hand
But he knew, they would never play
Well, I guess tomorrow
         is gonna be another yesterday

Let The Wind Take You Away

Soon he met the ocean's rising tide
Found him a cloud, that he could ride
Took a race through space
         that was deep and wide
But he couldn't cross the rivers
         of tears that he cried
There was no love
To speak of
Wherever he might lay
So, he lost himself
As he fell to hell
In the darkness of the day

Let The Wind Take You Away

Old man turned gray
Through ages of red
Turned his mind to the heavens
The he said
        I have the fear of being near
        A heart that's been misled
        I hear words of pain
        And the freezing rain
               is falling in my bed
Old man died
Nobody cried
His soul became a ray
Shining bright in the sky
He soon learned to fly
In his silence, you could hear him say

Let The Wind Take Me Away
