Any Old Wind That Blows lyrics

Lord, she's restless

Like cotton candy clouds that sail the day

Slow an' free

And she possesses

A mind that can't resign itself to stay

For long with me

Tho' I've tried and tried to keep her tied and satisfied

Until she really needs me

Yes, I do

But when that certain look comes on her face

I can't replace it, and she leaves me

She's a butterfly in mid July

Who just can't wait to try her brand-new wings

On brand-new things

And she needs no rhyme or reason, when she goes

Her mind is on what lies beyond that wall of blue horizon

I suppose

And heaven knows

She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows

Yes, she will, yes, she will

She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows

I know she needs me

About as much as I need someone else

Which I don't

And if need be

I swear someday I'll up and leave myself

Which I won't

Even if she loved another man, I'd understand it more than I do

Mmm, mmm, mmm

But I know the only reason

That she ever has for leavin', is she wants to

She's a butterfly in mid July

Who just can't wait to try her brand-new wings

On brand-new things

And she needs no rhyme or reason, when she goes

Her mind is on what lies beyond that wall of blue horizon

I suppose

And heaven knows

She'll go sailin' off on any old wind that blows
