|
In spite of the name, Independence, Kansas
|
Didn't grow many wild roses
|
But she was young and restless
|
And I loved her though holding her down was hopeless
|
I wanted her to say she couldn't live without
|
The life I had to offer but all she could talk about
|
Was faraway dreams, cities she'd never seen
|
How do I find that girl when she could be
|
|
Out there anywhere she just up and left
|
She didn't leave a forwarding address
|
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
|
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
|
She could be in a million places I guess
|
Up north, down south, back east, out west
|
|
She could be up in the Windy City
|
Where the world spins a little bit faster
|
Or gettin' a tan down in Miami that might be where I'd catch her
|
Maybe back in Virginia, her cousin lives there
|
Out in Arizona, she'd fit in anywhere
|
It's anyone's guess where she came to rest
|
My one chance for happiness is
|
|
Out there anywhere she just up and left
|
She didn't leave a forwarding address
|
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
|
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
|
She could be in a million places I guess
|
Up north, down south, back east, out west
|
|
I'm sitting here at a four-way intersection
|
Praying Lord won't you point me in the right direction
|
She could be
|
|
Out there anywhere she just up and left
|
She didn't leave a forwarding address
|
Or a trail for my lonely heart to follow
|
Which one of those four winds should I go chasing
|
She could be in a million places I guess
|
Up north, down south, back east, out west
|
Up north, down south, back east, out west
|
