If you spend your life chasing the wind, Eventually you will understand it, But you must first be ok with knowing that it will take you nowhere---- Unless you're among the types of people who feel like they need to be somewhere in particular---- But if you're like me, Or at least harbor the least bit of recklessness that no one has beat out of you yet, Then the wind is the only thing worth chasing. For you will be beautifully lost, Like the wind, Searching the desert skies in the morning to kiss the side of a mountain tasting the first few rays of the rising sun, And you will know why And you will know that this time Is the right time And this place Is the only place And that voice inside your head Is not you, But you are a voice. a great big lovely voice Howling to the midnight moon, And she understands you, The way only the moon can understand. And if you chase the wind long enough, You will become it, And you will understand.

Wind
If you spend your life chasing the wind, Eventually you will understand it, But you must first be ok with knowing that it will take you nowhere---- Unless you're among the types of people who feel like they need to be somewhere in particular---- But if you're like me, Or at least harbor the least bit of recklessness that no one has beat out of you yet, Then the wind is the only thing worth chasing. For you will be beautifully lost, Like the wind, Searching the desert skies in the morning to kiss the side of a mountain tasting the first few rays of the rising sun, And you will know why And you will know that this time Is the right time And this place Is the only place And that voice inside your head Is not you, But you are a voice. a great big lovely voice Howling to the midnight moon, And she understands you, The way only the moon can understand. And if you chase the wind long enough, You will become it, And you will understand.
You know what I hope for you.
