I've spent half my life
Looking for the reasons
things must change
And half my life
Trying to make them
stay the same
But love would fade
like summer into fall
All that I could see
was a mystery
It made no sense at all


CHORUS:

The will of the wind
You'll feel it and then
It will pass you blowin' steady
It comes and it goes
And God only knows
You must keep your sails on ready
So when it begins
Get all that you can
You must befriend
The will of the wind

I've spent so many hours
Thinkin' about theway things
might have been
And so many hours
Trying to bring the good
things back again
And so it goes for lonely
hearted fools
They let their days
just slip away
Until they give in to...

(REPEAT CHORUS)

CODA:

So when it begins
Get all that you can
You must befriend
The will of the wind
