lyrics

THE WINDS OF CHANGE

If no one had a dream then Martin Luther King
Would be another black man in Georgia
If no one spoke their mind then they won’t ever find
What they’re looking for

You ask what I wanna do and if I told you the truth
You’d wish you never asked
I don’t want your grief so please just make it brief
I ain’t got no time for your tears

The winds of change ain’t blowin’ your way
They are blowin’ mine

If I lived like you I’d be crying too
I have a sickness called common sense
If you looked to the sky, would you think to ask it why
You live just like them?

When you’re walking down the road will you look before you go?
Or will you just start walking down?
When you’re trying to sound smart, will you think before you depart?
Or will you just start talking out?

The winds of change ain’t blowin’ your way
They are blowin’ mine

If I had a car I would drive it very far
I’d put the pedal down
If I were a lover I wouldn’t hide beneath the covers
I would stand up and shout it out

I don’t mean to be green but your speech is obscene
Is it really in God you trust?
I believe in myself not the trophies on your shelf
Self-esteem doesn’t rust

The winds of change ain’t blowin’ your way
They are blowin’ mine
