goin' where the wind blows

someone said life is for the taking
here i am with my hand out waiting for a ride
i've been living on my great expectations
what good is it when i'm stranded here
and the world just passes by
where are the signs to help me get out of this place

if i should stumble on my moment in time, how will i know
if the story's written on my face, does it show
am i strong enough to walk on water
smart enough to come in out of the rain
or am i a fool going where the wind blows

here i sit halfway to somewhere
thinking about what's in front of me and
what i left behind
on my own, supposed to be so easy
is this what i've been after
or have i lost my mind
maybe this is my chance coming to take me away

if i should stumble on my moment in time, how will i know
if the story's written on my face, does it show
am i strong enough to walk on water
smart enough to come in out of the rain
or am i a fool going where the wind blows

here i am walking naked through the world
taking up space, society's child
make room for me
make room for me

am i strong enough to walk on water
smart enough to come in out of the rain
or am i a fool
going where the wind blows
