Winds that whisper
Into my soul
Change the course of life
Or so I’m told
They keep shifting
And blowing away
If only I knew what
They have to say
Cause the past has a way
Of depressing me
The worries of the future
They keep stressing me
All I ever wanted
Is to be happy
Keep the weight of the world
From crushing me
This zen kind of life
Taking over me
A zen kind of life
Will set me free
Tides that turn and
Bring me ashore
Once lost adrift
And searching for more
Until the birds
They called to me
Saying close your eyes
Yeah, breathe and just be
Watching the stars
Twinkle and shine
Saying look inward
For what’s most divine
/Chorus/
Past lessons- no need for sorrow
Future fears- no need to borrow
All that counts is here and now
All that matters to me anyhow
Feel the flow of energy
Coursing in and out of me
Kindred spirits, rays of light
It’s a zen, zen kind of life
So much chaos
We can’t control
Mustn’t chip away
What’s truly whole
No day is less
Than wonderful
No breath we breathe
Is trivial
If it’s a choice
I want it all
No, nothing less
Than magical
/chorus and fade/
