O wind, won't you sweep me up into the sky So I can get a better look At this life of mine And pick me up and twist me Around so I can see Everything around me now O won't you embrace me( x 4) O river won't take me Out into the sea So I can get a good look back At the land that grounds me and then a little further out So I can feel alone Much more than I have these days O then won't you embrace me O won't you embrace me (x3) I figure there is time Later on to move along From this there is time Enough of it for right or wrong I figure there is time So go easy on me And let me stay here a while Stay here awhile O wind won't you take me up to the sky I can get a good look down at this life of mine River won't you take me out and to the sea I can get a good look back at the land that grounds me Land that grounds me (x3)
