6   8    7   6     5  -6  -5  -4
A month of nights, a year of days

 6 8  7   6   6   -7 6  5
Octobers drifting into Mays

6  8   7  6     5   5   -6   -5   -4
I set my sail when the tide comes in

5   6   -5  -5  -5  6  -6   6
I just cast my fate to the wind

I shift my course along the breeze
Won't sail upwind on memories
The empty sky is my best friend
I just cast my fate to the wind

There never was, there couldn't be

A place in time
for men like me

Who'd drink the dark
and laugh at day

And let their wildest dreams blow away

So now I'm old, I'm wise, I'm smart

I'm just a man
with half a heart

I wonder how it might have been

Had I not cast my fate to the wind
