weren't for the wind

I wouldn't paint me as a heartbreaker

But I've said a few goodbyes

I'd make a promise, but I know, later

I'm bound to change my mind

Dependin' on the weather, I'm goin'

And, hell, baby, nobody knows where

Yeah, if it was a different time

Might've been different in a different life

Maybe that plane wouldn't ever take off

Maybe that dust wouldn't fly off the drive

Maybe that tumbleweed and me wouldn't leave every other sunrise

Maybe I'd settle down, dig in some roots

Find me a farmhouse, find me a you

Maybe I wouldn't be already gone again

If it weren't for the wind

I wouldn't stay wonderin' what's out there

I wouldn't saddle up on the breeze

I wouldn't disappear out of thin air

And I could put down these wings

Maybe that plane wouldn't ever take off

Maybe that dust wouldn't fly off the drive

Maybe that tumbleweed and me wouldn't leave every other sunrise

Maybe I'd settle down, dig in some roots

Find me a farmhouse, find me a you

Maybe I wouldn't be already gone again

If it weren't for the wind blowin'

Carryin' me to the wide open

White lines rollin' and the tires smokin'

It wouldn't be the rearview I'm lookin' in

If it weren't for the wind

If it weren't for the wind

Maybe that plane wouldn't ever take off

Maybe that dust wouldn't fly off the drive

Maybe that tumbleweed and me wouldn't leave every other sunrise

Maybe I'd settle down, dig in some roots

Find me a farmhouse, find me a you

Maybe I wouldn't be already gone again

If it weren't for the wind (blowin')

Carryin' me to the wide open

White lines rollin' and the tires smokin'

It wouldn't be the rearview I'm lookin' in

If it weren't for the wind

If it weren't for the wind
