Shawn Colvin: "Catch The Wind"



in the chilly hours and minutes
of uncertainty
i want to be
in the warm hold of your loving mind
to feel you all around me
and to take your hand
along the sand
ah, but i may as well
try and catch the wind

when sundown pales the sky
i want to hide a while
behind your smile
and everywhere i'd look, your eyes i'd find
for me to love you now
would be the sweetest thing
t'would make me sing
ah, but i may as well
try and catch the wind

when rain has hung the leaves with tears
i want you near
to kill my fears
to help me to leave all my blues behind
for standing in your heart
is where i wanna be
and i long to be,
ah, but i may as well
try and catch the wind
