Lyrics
Southern Breeze
v1
Long before, I chose a path for me
So many doors
I would look and explore
I lived in my dreams
Now a glass full of sand
That's when I had
God's gift in my hand
Suddenly...
Chorus1
A southern breeze tries to wake me
I can find my way back home
Full regret's been my companion
On this road I chose to go
v2
Far beyond, my childhood ways
Reach for stars
That disappeared by day
I had what it takes
But didn't like what I made
When I had
God's gift in my hand
I pushed and pulled
Tried to fix mistakes
My soul is old
And I've lost my way
I've packed up my pride
But still I don't understand
What did I do
With God's gift in my hand
Chorus2
A southern breeze tries to wake me
I can find my way back home
Full regret's been my companion
On this road I chose to go
Bridge
I sit here in silence
Memories still haunting me
My peaceful heart has been violent
Wont you set me free...
Set me free...
Chorus3
A southern breeze finally wakes me
I can find my way back home
Full regret's been my companion
On this road I chose to go
Repeat Chorus
