lyrics

Just The Wind

Dark clouds from the Baja sky
Blew into their town
They called it cruel fate
On that stormy day
As the waves came crashing down
Nothing in its wake
But flooded memories
Drowned into the sea
And as the clouds cleared
A less angry wind
Sailed around the globe to me

It was just the wind
Blowing in her hair
That caught my eye
Fell in love right there
Mother Nature's gift
From so far away
It was just the wind
That changed my life today

They said a twister
From a Midwest town
Turned her life around
Without a warning
The dark and cloudy sky
Spun into the ground
Nothing to call home
Just twisted memories
Scattered randomly
And as the wind cleared
With nowhere left to go
Headed eastbound right to me

Blue sky
Not a cloud in sight
A lucky day for two
I feel a cool wind
From some distant place
What more luck will blow on through?
