Windmills Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I spend too much time
Raiding windmills
We go side by side
Laughing til it's right

[Chorus (shortened)]
There's something that you won't show
Waiting where the light goes

[Verse 2]
Take the darkest hour
Break it open
Water to repair
What we have broken

[Chorus 1]
There's something that you won't show
Waiting where the light goes
Maybe anywhere the wind blows
It's all worth waiting for

[Bridge]
Call on the porters to lighten the load
Tell all the passengers we're going home
[Verse 3]
I spend too much time
Seeking shelter
World without end couldn't hold her

[Chorus 2]
There's something that you won't show
Waiting where the light goes
Maybe anywhere the wind blows
It's all worth waiting for
Anywhere the wind blows

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
