Prevailing Winds


In the eyes of a falcon
I stare as we drop below
On the wings of a dove
I dive and I fall below

I forget how it came to be
And when did the whispers start
Did I lead from my head or
Did I leap with my heart?

In the thoughts we hide
In the signs I show
Masquerades will take me where
Prevailing winds will blow

The skies they know...
The winds will blow...

And now on the day after
Back payments long past due
The future... it is here
Old eyes look for something new

Watch the rain flood the streets
From mist and cloud came its start
Do the waters pull us down or
Do we let the rivers part?

In the times we share
By our minds alone
All these lives will travel where
Prevailing winds have blown

The lies they show...
The winds will blow...

With the eyes of a falcon
I spy as we come back down
With the wings of a dove
I rise and it comes back 'round

Question how it came to be
How small disguises start
Do I weep from my head or
Do I bleed with my heart?

All the lives we take
In our veins they flow
And I am drawn to where
Prevailing winds will blow

The skies they know...
The winds still blow...
