A month of nights, a year of days
October's drifting into May
You set your sail when the tide comes in
And you just cast your fate to the wind
You shift your course along the breeze
Won't sail up wind on memories
The empty sky is your best friend
And you just cast your fate to the wind
There never was, there couldn't be
A place in time like open sea
We drink the dark and laugh the day
And let our wildest dreams blow away
So now you're wise and now you're smart
You're just a man with an open heart
Don't wonder how it might have been
And you just cast your fate to the wind
To the wind, to the wind
