Lyrics
FOLLOW THE WIND
WALKIN' ALONG A MIDNIGHT ROADTHINKIN' ABOUT THE DAY
TRYING TO SHAKE THE AUTUMNS COLDTRYING TO FIND MY WAY
THE FEAR AND PAIN OF A LOVE INSANEAND THE ROAD THAT NEVER ENDS
WHILE I WALK BESIDE THE HAUNTING MOONAND FEAR I COULD NEVER WIN
I FOLLOW THE WIND
YEAH I FOLLOW THE WIND
YEAH I FOLLOW THE WIND
YEAH I FOLLOW THE WIND
AS THE THUNDER ROLLS AND THE STREETLIGHT GLOWS
THROUGH A MISTY MOUNTAIN AIR
I THINK ABOUT THE DISTANT DAYSAND THE LOVE THAT ENDED THERE
THROUGH THE FEAR AND PAIN OF A LOVE INSANE
AND THE ROAD THAT NEVER ENDS
WHILE I WALK BESIDE A HAUNTING MOON AND FEAR I COULD NEVER WIN
I FOLLOW THE WIND
I FOLLOW THE WIND
YEAH I FOLLOW THE WIND
WELL I FOLLOW THE WIND
I FOLLOW THE WIND
WHEN YOU RIDE THE WIND OF LIFE - NOT KNOWING WHAT DIRECTION IT BLOWS
WHEN YOU FEEL THE HAND OF TIME - NOT KNOWING IF IT IS RUNNING OUT
EVEN WHEN IT IS NOT
SET YOUR FEARS BEHIND YOU
OR AT LEAST OFF TO THE SIDE
YOU'LL BE CARRIED BY A FORCE UNKNOWN
YET THE FORCE ...WILL BE YOUR OWN
