The Wind

Jonatha Brooke

[Verse 1]
You take the path down to the shore
But no one lives there any more
Your house is shuttered, cupboards bare
Papers scattered everywhere

[Verse 2]
The labyrinth of all your fears
The twisted plot that brought you here
You wring it out year after year
With "More faith, Lord" and lakes and lakes of tears

[Chorus]
Hey, the wind just blows right through you
You're hollow as a shell but you still can’t hear the sea
And hey, the wind just blows right through you
Scattering your best intentions
It drives you to your knees until it gets to me
But you'll do exactly what you please
Here comes that breeze

[Verse 3]
You've only got four stories now
"Sinner, saint, poet, clown"
I run to catch you when you fall
But before you hit the ground there’s no one there at all

[Chorus]
Hey, the wind just blows right through you
You're hollow as a shell but you still can't hear the sea
And hey, the wind just blows right through you
Scattering your best intentions
It drives you to your knees until it gets to me
But you'll do exactly what you please

[Bridge]
On and on, on and on
You're not fooling anyone
You're not fooling anyone
But somehow you'll still get the joke
Ever bent, but you are never broke
Somehow I still love you
And I know you'll leave me laughing when you go

[Chorus]
Hey, yeah the wind just blows right through you
So I’ll collect the shells so I can hear the sea
And hey, the wind just blows right through you
So I will hold your best intentions
Down here on my knees, I’m praying, please
"Just give me 'More faith, Lord’
And shelter from that breeze"
