Prayer Upon The Wind - Blues Traveler

I know you’ve left me long ago

But still I’ll say goodbye just so

In case the perfect wind might blow

The air would take my words and go

To find you and to let you know

And that the wind much more than me

Explain to you that you might see

That loneliness for being free

Can be a price, or more a fee

For dreams we use though mine use me

And all the while I’ll disappear

Till soon the wind is all you’ll hear

Disintegrating tear by tear

To pay a cost that’s just too dear

Till it seems like I was never here

When all my dreams have had their way

And nothing’s left to go or stay

It’s finally to the air I pray

That something that I had to say

Is with you when your heart’s at play

And a prayer upon the wind will do

It’s all I’ve left to give to you

A final prayer that love lives on

Upon the air it’s never gone

May every wind take up my song

As breath in me where it belongs

Though hearts may break for beating wrong

I had this prayer like I had you

I gave it to the wind it flew

So fare thee well and nothing new

A prayer upon the wind will do
