I lived a thousand years
|
In someone else's shoes
|
I lived a thousand lives with someone else's blues
|
I talked so many nights
|
With voices I don't know
|
Wore someone else's face
|
And hoped it wouldn't show
|
|
I made a place for you
|
And you made time for me
|
And we promised all the things
|
We know will never be
|
I waited far too long
|
Out in the winding wind
|
Dreaming and hoping as the world moved on
|
It would blow away my sins
|
|
Oh winding wind
|
|
Everybody's got a soul to sell
|
Everybody's got a tale to tell
|
All about the things that might have been
|
Blown away on the winding wind
|
|
Some may change the world
|
Some just lose their way
|
Some just sit around holding hands
|
Praying for a judgement day
|
I hear them talking deep in the night
|
Wondering if they will make it tonight
|
|
So I will walk with giant men
|
At peace among their feet
|
And we will cross the wild frontier
|
Not ever to retreat
|
|
Oh winding wind
|
