Any Way The Wind Blows

Doris Day · Other Songs - Doris Day

Can't tell you the truth

'Least I don't lie about that

Kind of comfort in you

Comes when you lie right back



Safe from such a strange point of view

To hear your own words on you



How much do you go to be gone?

You are any way the wind blows

Any way the wind blows in



Don't wanna come down too low

Any way the wind blows

Any way the wind blows in

Any way the wind blows in



Similar creatures we are

Chasing the pipe dream down

Love elusive so far

Keeps us divided now



Go, go on and write me love songs

So I have something to sing when your gone



How much do you go to be gone?

You are any way the wind blows

Any way the wind blows in



Don't wanna come down too low

Any way the wind blows

Any way the wind blows in



Don't wanna come down

Do you know the way

To be in one place but sway?

Anyway the wind's blowin'



You are love, you are love

You are monsters and angels

Untouched, unseen



All in one, all in one

I take all that you are

'Cause you're just like me

But you move and it's hard

To stay close to a satellite



So I lose sight of you

Till you come round again

I'm watching the wind



Hey ay, hey ay, ay

Anyway the wind's blowin'



How much do you go to be gone?

You are any way the wind blows

Any way the wind blows in



Don't wanna come down too low

Any way the wind blows

Any way the wind blows in



Don't wanna come down

Do you know the way

To be in one place but stay?

Any way the wind's blowin'

Any way the wind's blowin'
