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 windThere never was, there couldn't be
A place in time
for men like meWho'd drink the dark
and laugh at dayAnd 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 heartI wonder how it might have been
Had I not cast my fate to the wind
