Seems to me the whole world moves in circles

Seasons of the sun & mortal clay

Each leaf has a morning & an evening

Green turns gold and nothing gold can stay

Comes a time for standing in the sunset

Poets call the dying of the light

We recall the springtime of our journey    

Singing to the dark encroaching night


Chorus:

 I was the wind - when I was free

 I was the wind – the wind was me

 I was the Earth - the sky - the sea

 I was the wind - when I was free


In our prime the time seems never-ending

Time flies by but we have time to burn

Never thinking as that time we’re spending

Each day is a point of no return

Time & tide glide by in one direction

Etching out our story in the glass

That we see each day in our reflection

Of our life and how it came to pass


Cho


Each day lived in hope is never wasted

Hope paints dreams that one day we’ll recall

When the fruits of life have all been tasted

We’ll remember days we had it all

Stars that shine above the sleeping forest

Weep for broken dreams that lie below

Witness to the everlasting cycle

Moving from the springtime to the snow


Chorus


I Was The Wind
