The Wilderness of Manitoba
Wild Wind
Late October ended
At the drop of a dime
Far too long dependent
On my cold autumn mind
Wild wind upon the sense
Leads me off the other shore
Lay down your defenses
Don't you wonder what they're for?
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Have you not forgotten
About all we've said and done?
The cities we got lost in
Every battle that we've won
Each year leads us back to
The same place as before
Still, these fears impact you
Will they haunt us anymore?
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Slow September falling
We've seen another year
Wild wind comes a-callin'
But you're no longer here
