The Wind Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh my God, I think I'm lost at sea
And these silent waves are my company
And I lost the line between the sky and sea
And I'm wondering will the wind ever come for me, yeah

[Chorus]
'Cause I don't know
I don't know where I am
Can you tell me
Will I break or will I bend?
Will the wind ever come again?

[Verse 2]
I feel the sun coming up, rising from the East
And I see the Empire falling to her knees
And I lost the line between her and me
But my troubles are gone if the wind ever comes for me, yeah

[Chorus]
'Cause I don't know
I don't know where I am
Can you tell me
Will I break or will I bend?
Will the wind ever come again?

[Bridge]
Dreamed, I found the shoreline
You were standing there
I dreamed I found you waiting
You were waiting for me, waiting for me
Tried to kiss the emptiness
Lost the line between sky and sea
I feel the sun coming up
Coming up, coming up, coming up

[Outro]
But I don't know, I don't know where I am
I will break or I will bend
Will the wind ever come again?

About

This song bio is unreviewed

The song was penned by The Fray guitarist Joe King after going through a heartbreaking moment in his life; a divorce after 12 years of marriage. He is metaphorically floating in the sea, waiting for the wind to push him back in the direction he was going.

Joe King says of the song:

I connected to the early Eastern explorers who were in the middle of the ocean not knowing where they were and not knowing if they was going to fall off the edge of the earth, or if they were going to discover new land, or if they were ever going to see their families again. That was me.
