lyrics

I can see my reflection / on that side of the river
fall’s closing in / I’m starting to shiver
ain’t no place to hide / when the leaves start to turn
flames jump the water / looking for something to burn

When the four winds blow (3)

I run and I hide / I pray and I swear
I look in my rear-view / to see if you’re there
I try to remember / then I try to forget
the building blocks left / from the sins of regret

When the four winds blow (3)
rooted in place / before you know
When the four winds blow

Past ain’t nothing but leftover dreams / you know what I mean
you know what I mean …you know what I mean

I was gonna let go / but drowning’s no fun
when you’re doing it at / the point of a gun
if I find a home / then maybe I’ll stay
if you let me in / promise to steal me away

When the four winds blow (3)
rooted in place / before you know
When the four winds blow

Past ain’t nothing but leftover dreams / you know what I mean
you know what I mean …you know what I mean
