WILL OF THE WIND Gregory William Barnhill and James G. Photoglo I've spent half my life Looking for the reasons things must change And half my life trying to make them stay the same But love would fade like summer into fall All that I could see was a mystery It made no sense at all Refrain: The will of the wind, you feel it and then It will pass you blowing steady It comes and it goes and God only knows You must keep your sails on ready So when it begins, get all that you can You must befriend the will of the wind I've spent so many hours Thinking 'bout the way things might have been And so many hours trying to bring the good times back again And so it goes for lonely hearted fools They let their days slip away Until they give into . . . Refrain

My husband often comments that I look extremely happy when I stick my face into the wind and embrace it. Wonderful metaphor for so many things!
