Blackwind

Don't try too hard to catch the winds,

Where they are going and where they have been,

Don't try to outrun what the winds are showin',

Just gotta give in to where they are blowin',

Cause who are we?

Who are we without the ones we love?

All alone.

Sometimes it blows you down,

And weathers your face and leaves us no trace,

And you find yourself far from home.

Well it's better to move than it stands to when you don't know

While the rooftops will open the air

For the answer to our lives is blowin',

Around and flying out of control.

Alot of things blowin' us up above the ground

Everybody hold on to the ones that you love

Blackwind's blowing in sight of everyday,

Don't waste your time with lonely yesterdays.

Everybody smile while the wind blows us around

Can't control the weather just gotta be what you need,

Higher in the air everybody give in to the storm

Don't try to hide.

To get yourself away from where we are going.

Everybody just climb up today and we'll go away.
