She woke up Singin' this mornin' And calling me her man There was a crack in the clouds And the sun shifted over It bathed our heads And our hands
And most days I just start walkin' And my head Goes down For I know which way the wind blows Through this town
Yeah I know which way the wind blows And I know your place is headin' far Yeah I know which way the wind blows Back to the door
There's a sweet smell comin' from the bakery But the child in me sleeps so soundly For there's sourness that I crave And I go far I know that door
The softness of my lover's hands Gently pushes me out in the street again For she knows which way the wind blows And how it's useless fighting against that wind
Yeah I know which way the wind blows It blows me back to her Yeah I know which way the wind blows And how it turns me around
Yeah I know which way the wind blows It blows me down onto my knees Yeah I know which way the wind blows Back to her feet on my knees
