He threw his hopes into the wind To see if they would pin on her again He threw his heart against the wall To see if it would stick or fall She put her arms around him And said you are forgiven He said well you're the only thing That makes life worth living When you live into the wind He pushed the rock up to the top Until it rolled back down the mountain He did it once, now he can't top But he'll never quit complaining She tells him why he does it It must be because he needs to He takes his hands away And the rock doesn not roll down It sits firm into the wind Why can't he see He creates these situations It's not to be or not to be Nothing's that easy He builds a home paper on sand And awaits congratulations The wind blows once, the house falls down And he wails amidst the ruins For all the time that he spent working On this worthless enterprise She stands him on a rock and says A word to the wise If you live into the wind... He doesn't feel the cold today He doesn't worry about tomorrow He doesn't build a house of cards Just so he can knock it down He takes her in his arms His overconfidence returning And laughs with her when she says We have love to burn If it burns into the wind.
