lyrics

Let me know which way the time goes
Does it go the way the wind blows?
Does it go the way the wind blows now?

Let me know just how your skin shows
Does it shine out like the moon glows?
Or does your face fall low and lonesome now?

Let me know just how your mind turns
Does it spark like flint and iron?
Does it smolder in that weathered prow?

Let me know just how your heart stirs
Does it ride on white-winged shoulders?
Does my love not make you bolder now?

You were once a boy, alone against the grave
You looked out to the waves and felt the hunger for hard pay
Waiting on the day when they could take you away from me now

So let me know which way the time goes
Does it go the way the wind blows?
Does it go the way the wind blows now?

Let me just how your skin shows
Does it shine out like the moon glows?
Or does your face fall low and lonesome now?
