Blame It On the Wind

I've been a lot of places in a little time
Eight years have taught me how to rhythm, how to rhyme
I met some different people who lead different lives
But I got one to stick with for forever, that one's mine
Don't hold to tight to what you love
You think you can control the way your life runs
Well don't come running to me when it all falls down

Well I'll just blame it on the wind
Oh you never know just what you're gonna get
Time moves slow for the ones who can't forget
Take a step back then it all makes sense
What can you do except blame it on the wind

There's a difference between what you want and what you have
But people these days forget and force a laugh
They think they hold their world together with their own two hands
Wouldn't you feel free if you only knew the plan that's made for you
That you couldn't change nothing if you wanted to
That your life's a perfect piece in the puzzle of history

Oh I'll just blame it on the wind
Oh you never know just what you're gonna get
Time moves slow for the ones who can't forget
Take a step back then it all makes sense
What can you do except blame it on the wind

I spent my time praying for things that I couldn't have
Why not go searching for something for something that's gonna last
Now I'm just a step away from giving in
'Cause every time that I get up I know that I'm just gonna fall down again

Oh I'll just blame it on the wind
Oh you never know just what you're gonna get
Time moves slow for the ones who can't forget
Take a step back then it all makes sense
What can you do except blame it on the wind
What can you do except blame it on the wind
