and the wind belongs to no one
the wind belongs to no one.

I gave my breath to the song
to the song was a mind,
neither a ship, nor a sea,
neither of glass, nor of wine,

climbing hand over hand,
toward that pinprick of light,
toward the sea that god sewn. (x8)

Ah baby, I try to recognize it in my mind,
and I try to stamp it out before it happens,
I try to recognize it in my mind, and I try to stamp it out.
The writing's on, the writing's on, the writing's on the wall. (x8)
___________
This land belong to the gulls, and the gulls to their cry,

and the cry to the wind.
and the gulls to their cry
and their cry to the wind
and the wind belongs to no one
the wind belongs to no one.
