Where the Wind Wants to Go…

We take to the sky in the morning
While the sun and the wind are still low
Drifting over the farms and the forests
And the whole world is waking below
My balloon like a cloud is sailing
Upon currents that no one can see
Over miles and miles of uplifted smiles
We learn what it is to be free

Fly low and slow down a stream
Wondering if I'm in a dream
I see my reflection below
Don't tell me that it isn't so

I'll go where the wind wants to go
And see what the world has to show
No worries when I'm flying slow
And learning what eagles know

There's beauty in not knowing where you're going
And drifting to find what you may
To float with breeze and do as I please
Is living this life my own way
Playing hide and seek with a cloud
Soon makes me wonder out loud
Why it must end with my friend and the wind
But soon we will have to come down

I'll go where the wind wants to go
And see what the world has to show
No worries when I'm flying slow
And learning what eagles know

Softly we come back to earth
From a journey that brings my rebirth
Back home again I dream of the wind
And tomorrow morning…
Tomorrow morning…
Tomorrow morning…
We'll do it again
