Lyrics for I Talk To The Wind

Said the straight man to the late man "Where have you been?" "I've been here and I've been there And I've been in between" I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear I'm on the outside, looking inside What do I see? Much confusion, disillusion All around me I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear You don't possess me, don't impress me Just upset my mind Can't instruct me or conduct me Just use up my time I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear I talk to the wind My words are all carried away I talk to the wind The wind does not hear The wind cannot hear Said the straight man to the late man "Where have you been?" "I've been here and I've been there And I've been in between"
