Listen to the Wind Lyrics

The mountain air

The cool breeze is beckoning

Got to listen to the wind

You know me

I've got to get out of the city

Just to listen to the wind

I'm sorry honey

Where I'm going you can't come with me

Got to listen to the wind

We are waiting for the fire

We are waiting for the flood

Mountain crumbles in the ocean

But there isn't any blood

I was standing on the coast line

Hands in my pockets

Threw my old life in the water

But it didn't get me wet

I never knew it but I prepared for the fight

I've listened for years to the rising tide

All alone in the parking lot burning my tires

All alone in the parking lot burning my tires

Armageddon armageddon

The fire rises up again

Got to listen to the wind

Got on the freeway in the dead of night

To let my mind unwind

Just tryin' to listen to the wind

You've been my only friend for years and years

You've been my only friend who hears

When we listen to the wind

I turned on the TV to see the news

To see if anyone else from the city was coming on

That was when I saw you your face filling up with fire

Tried to photograph you then

You were looking like an angel

In a catastrophic choir

I never knew it but I prepared for the fight

I've listened for years to the rising tide

All alone in the parking lot burning my tires

All alone in the parking lot burning my tires

I'm the owner of a broken heart

Everything gets torn apart

Even the majestic dark

Crumbles into the park

We are waiting for the fire

We are waiting for the flood

Mountain crumbles in the ocean

But there isn't any blood

Power crashes on a dying shore

I caught the final glow

Just to listen to the wind

The canyon rising up in my headlights

I'm on the shoulder crying

Just tryin to listen to the wind

You've been my only friend for years and years

You've been my only friend who hears

When we listen to the wind

We are waiting for the fire

We are waiting for the flood

Mountain crumbles in the ocean

But there isn't any blood

I was standing on the coast line

Hands in my pockets

Threw my old life in the water

But it didn't get me wet

I never knew it but I prepared for the fight

I've listened for years to the rising tide

All alone in the parking lot burning my tires

All alone in the parking lot burning my tires

I'm the owner of a broken heart

Everything gets torn apart

Even the majestic dark
