Lyrics

I?VE BEEN LEANING TO THE WIND
(FRY, SHARP)

As long as I can remember I?ve been leaning to the wind

Though the twisting trail grows straighter as beginning runs to end

Long ago I sought a place to simply wait and rest

But I belong upon this road where direction is only guessed

As long as I can remember I?ve been leaning to the wind

To hear the sounds of fire on a dark cold night

Or just of leaves that are blowing in the wind

I?ve turned my face to catch its song and the message that it might send

Long ago I sought a place to lose myself in thought

But the wind too has a place for me where its lessons will be taught

I?ve had good cause for memory of the finest song I?ve heard

The tune goes on from the dusk till dawn while I strain for every word

As long as I can remember I?ve been leaning to the wind

To hear the sounds of fire on a dark cold night

Or just of leaves that are blowing in the wind

D C G
I?ve turned my face to catch its song and the message that it might send

Shadows and the clear bright stars mark each new found course
A F G
Some hope, some fear, some disappear Most without remorse
C G C D7
I?m half way through my journey But its less I fear the end
G Em C
Although the start was the hardest part it was done by the grace of the wind


G C G Em
As long as I can remember I?ve been leaning to the wind
G C
To hear the sounds of fire on a dark cold night
G Em
Or just of leaves that are blowing in the wind

I?ve turned my face to catch its song and the message that it might send
