CHANGIN’ WIND
LYRICS: GLENN KAISER MUSIC: ROY MONTROY
ONE SEPTEMBER WHEN I WAS 15, ON A DARKER THAN AVERAGE SATURDAY THRE WAS AN INCREDIBLE WINDSTORM THAT CONTINUED ALL NIGHT. I WAS IN THE STREET, NEARLY BLOWN DOWN. SOMETHING REALLY MAJOR SEEMED ABOUT TO HAPPEN, A TORNADO OR SOMETHING BEYOND HUMAN POWER TO EVADE OR STOP. THE SPIRIT IS LIKE THAT

SOMETIMES I RECALL THE WAY IT USED TO BE
COLD SEPTEMBER WIND, DARKNESS DOWN ON ME
PASSION THAT FELT SO DEEP INSIDE
MIRRORS ALWAYS MADE ME WANT TO HIDE
UPHILL EVERY DAY, FAMILY JUST IN RUINS
PEOPLE LIVIN’ FOR THEMSELVES AND LIVIN’ ON EXCUSES
LIFE BECAME A ONE-ACT MISERY
STRUGGLE MADE A STRANGER OUT OF ME

IT WAS CHANGIN’ WIND, A REARRANGIN’ WIND
IT WAS A CHANGIN’, REARRANGIN’ WIND
IT WAS A CHANGIN’ WIND

SOMETIMES I REMEMBER JUST THE WAY IT FELT
BLISTERS FROM MY RAGGED SOUL, BLOWIN’ IN FROM HELL
PASSION THAT JUST SEEMED A BALL AN’ CHAIN
THAT WAS MY LIFE BEFORE THE SAVIOR CAME

IT WAS A CHANGIN’ WIND, A POWERFUL WIND
IT WAS A CHANGIN’, REARRANGIN’ WIND
A REARRANGIN’ WIND
