And as I step outside this bitter conflict of life,
I ponder if her cries can stop the stars from flight.
The fall wind blows off the ocean,
as if whisked by the tips of trees,
who were saddened, just like I am
at the sight of their dying leaves.
And I've just returned
from the vast highway of hurt,
realizing what I had,
cause I'll never get it back.
And look at how windswept
my life's become since you left.
You're nowhere but my spinning head.
She used to walk beside the pier,
as the break water disabled
the coming swells,
so I run there
to find lovers all strewn all about.
I can't believe I let you go,
Laying here sad and alone.
Guess you left to go find peace.
Are you happier without me?
And look at how windswept
my life's become since you left.
You're nowhere but my spinning head.
No one seems to understand
how your scent blows off the ocean.
I can't believe I let you go,
laying here so sad and all alone, all alone.
All the things I cannot change now, (alone)
all the things that trouble me,
all the times we find who we are, (alone)
all the things I didn't see.
And the only thing I get now (alone)
is how the blowing wind survived,
because you're so far away (alone)
So why you steal my wave?
So remember, we had good times
and I'll never forget your eyes.
So does all love end the same,
Leaving us all torn and broken?
And look at how windswept
my life's become since you left.
You're nowhere but my spinning head.
No one seems to understand
how your scent blows off the ocean.
I can't believe I let you go,
laying here so sad and all alone.
