lyrics

I’ll put my money on the wind, to make it free some time
Where it’s goin’, where it’s been, no it don’t rely, if my sail’s set high
The money and the grass, it may feel green, but it’s a blue, blue sky
(What if we done it all for money?)

The good abound in the howling sound
Says every flame that’s tame be stoked
Unwind your bind, spread the love around
So that dormant flame may be awoke

Don’t hold your breath on the wind, to choose a side
No matter the color of your skin, your kin, or the flag you fly
got it’s own pride
You may not choose your wave, but you can guide your ride

Step inside, be part of the show
It ain’t only where the lights do glow
Clap in time, on the two and four
Feel the wind blow to the back row

I’m puttin’ my dime on time, to not give a damn
Don’t matter how much is yours or mine,
it’s how you embrace this land and strongly stand
Every breath and every step, should be the same for every man

The good abound in the howling sound
Says every flame that’s tame be stoked
Unwind your bind, spread the love around
So that dormant flame may be awoke

A ship comes with tattered sails
It’s men are weary but with mighty tales
Of triumph and tears, but love never fails…

I wave my hand and the wind might blow,
A wild world goin’ toe to toe
We’re spinnin’ ‘round like a merry-go,
We’ll sing our song wherever we may go
