In the chilly hours and minutes of uncertainty,
I want to be,
In the warm hold of your loving mind,
To feel you all around me,
To take your hand along the sand.
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.
When sundown pales the sky,
I want to hide awhile behind your smile,
Everywhere I look your eyes I find,
And standin' in your heart's where I want to be,
I long to be.
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.
When rain has hung the leaves with tears,
I want you here to kill my fears,
Help me leave all my blues behind,
For me to love you now would be the sweetest thing,
It would make me sing.
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.
In the chilly hours and minutes of uncertainty,
I want to be,
In the warm hold of your loving mind,
To feel you all around me,
To take your hand along the sand.
Ah, but I may as well try and catch...
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.
