A month of nights (a year of days)

Octobers drifting into Mays

You set your sail when the tide comes in

And you just cast your fate to the wind



I shift my course along the breeze

Won't sail up wind on memories

The empty sky is my best friend

And you just cast your fate to the wind



The time has such a way of changing a man throughout the years

And now I'm rearranging my life through all the tears

Alone

Alone

Alone



There never was, there couldn't be

A place in time for men to be

Who drink the dark and laugh at day

And let their wildest dreams blow away



So now you're old, you're wise, you're smart

You're just a man with half a heart

You wonder how it might have been

Had you not cast your fate to the wind
