I Want to Know You

Do I know you? There’s something in your eyes that seems familiar
A glimmer in your smile to consider
Do I know you, or do I just want to?
Do I know you? There’s something in your touch making me shiver
A message in your movements to deliver
Do I know you?

I can see you firmly in my future. I don’t care if I knew you in the past
I want to know you more and know you presently
I want to know you more and make it last

Do I know you? Or is it my mind playing tricks on me
A figment of my own imagination
Do I know you, or do I just want to?
Do I know you? Or is it an illusion that I see?
A distant mirage of my own construction
Is it really you?

Cause I can see you firmly in my future. I don’t care if I knew you in the past
I want to know you more and know you presently
I want to know you more and make it last

If only I could know and know for certain
That I could know you and truly be known
Then I could take your hand and lead you into me
Open my heart and let it be your home

For I can see you firmly in my future. I don’t care if I knew you in the past
I want to know you more and know you presently
I want to know you more and make it last
I don’t care if I knew you before somehow
I want to know you
I want to know you now

I Wish the Wind Would Blow

This house is not the same now
This house is not a home
Without your spirit here to fill it
It's a pile of dead, dry bones
And I can't go on without you
I feel just like dust in the wind
So I throw my care up in the air
And say let the storm begin

I wish the wind would blow right through me
I wish the wind would blow me through
I wish the wind of change would get me
And blow me back to you
I wish the seasons led me back
To the world I used to know
I wish, I wish the wind would get me
I wish, I wish the wind would blow

I gaze out my window
And I watch tumbleweeds twirl
They blow right past and tumble fast
Without a care in the world
And the sands blow from the desert
Fill the air like the world's on fire
I want to join their ride, so I step outside
And beg the wind to take me higher

I wish the wind would blow right through me
I wish the wind would blow me through
I wish the wind of change would get me
And blow me back to you
I wish the seasons led me back
To the world I used to know
I wish, I wish the wind would get me
I wish, I wish the wind would blow

Yeah the wind can whip in heavy
It can turn or it can stay
And it don't care if you're ready
The wind will carry you away

I wish the wind would blow right through me
I wish the wind would blow me through
I wish the wind of change would get me
And blow me back to you
I wish the seasons led me back
To the world I used to know
I wish, I wish the wind would get me
I wish, I wish the wind would blow
