lyrics

I lay awake as dawn breaks, stretch my legs,
get up at eight, I was up too late,
eggs and bacon, Welch's Grape to start the day.
A hot pot of coffee taunts exhaustion from my body
as I fill a cup up halfway and leave enough space for J.D.
Who loyally takes the pain and rage from playin’ this daily game and makes it go away, yes, he makes it go away.

This festive breakfast helps this reckless mess forget the stress of making rent and living check to check.
Tou know I need to know which way to go,
you know I'm over just floatin on hope alone,
and waiting for that wind to blow and carry me away

I'm just waitin for that wind to blow (and carry me away) (x4)

I’ve finally decided to die tryin’ and quit hidin’ all my private desires inside burnin’ brighter than fire.
And recently the ease and efficiency with which we succeed increasingly breeds creativity, exceeding needs.
It seems to me we need to meet beneath the leaves this evening to seek sweet dreams in discrete realities.

This open road flows below me, broken spokes won’t slow me down. So show me how to grow and glow, don’t doubt me now. I need to know which way to go, you know, I’m over floating on hope and just waiting for the wind to blow and carry me away.

Tired of just waitin, over just waitin for that wind to blow
And carry me away
Tired of just waiting for that wind to blow
And carry me away
Over just waitin for that wind to blow
and carry me away.

Tired of just waitin...
Over just waitin...
Won't be waitin...
No more waitin for that wind to blow
and carry me away
Won't be waitin for that wind to blow
and carry me away
No more waitin for that wind to blow
and carry me away
