Lyric

The rushing wind

Turns the leaves, they sway and spin

Right before my eyes

Where are you going, where to begin?

Leaves are scattered all around

Paths I choose, they falter, fall to ground

Footsteps vanish in the cold

The sunlight strikes, it takes its hold

And girls and boys, they lose control

Dive into the spinning storm

I see you laughing through the classroom warm

Maybe I can reach that place

I rise and twirl, I fall through space

In the middle of the playground

Tangled, spinning round and round

Falling skyward, losing ground

Caught in the whirlwind we’ve found

The urgent wind

Gathers leaves and carries them past

Right before my eyes

It sweeps me up, I’m held fast

If you’re lost, wait for time to mend

If your choice is set, let the earth defend

Chimes ring out, a sudden blast

Through the classroom, it blows us fast

Dive into the spinning storm

I see you laughing through the classroom warm

Maybe I can reach that place

I rise and twirl, I fall through space

In the middle of the playground

Tangled, spinning round and round

Falling skyward, losing ground

Caught in the whirlwind we’ve found

The curtain drifts, so soft, so light

For now, I’ll just forget tonight
