If Only the Wind Would Blow Me Away Songtext
von Ezra Furman

If only the wind would blow me away
I'd be leavin' on my way
If only the wind would blow me away
Then I'd be gone

All the hate I've harbored
Spending nights in armor
Crusin' 'round these neighborhoods I've known
I don't mind the darkness
If the light is harshest
Shines on through and cuts me to the bone

If only the wind would blow me away
I'd be thankful on that day
If only the wind would blow me away
Then I'd be gone


All these young folks dyin'
Sick to death of cryin'
Walkin' through the brutal Autumn leaves
Lost the knack for sleepin'
Nameless fear keeps creepin'
Broken phone that calls but can't receive

If only the wind could blow me away
I'd be leavin' on my way
If only the wind would blow me away
Then I'd be gone

If only the wind would blow me away
I'd be leavin' on my way
If only the wind would blow me away
Then I'd be gone

I'd be gone
I'd be gone
