lyrics

give me open country give me high grass in the plains
fields of home, now well over grown
moving west bound through the mountains
narrow passes that we take
touch the sky, if only for a while

we are born upon the wind, take me everywhere you blow
so these things that I have forgotten again I'll come to know
all these things that I have forgotten again I'll come to know

breath in the pacific taste the salt that's in the air
the water moves the blood that's in my veins
all these faces, features, places frame the landscape in my head
i dream of days when we'll return again

we are born upon the wind, take me everywhere you blow
so these things that I have forgotten again I'll come to know
all these things that I have forgotten again I'll come to know

we are brothers in this journey won't you take me by the hand
guide me home, wherever you may call
and if I fall wound you please catch me before I hit then ground
we are one or we are not at all

we are born upon the wind, take me everywhere you blow
so these things that I have forgotten again I'll come to know
all these things that I have forgotten again I'll come to know

I listened to this album once, sent it to 2 of my friends saying "it's weird and catchy rock at the same time, and purely amazing". I think it's also my review of the album. Great riffing !! Maxime
