nobody’s seen the wind

nobody’s seen the wind
that doesn’t mean it isn’t there
i stood out on the bridge
and felt it blow thru my hair
and i knew i’d be okay
though i’d lost you as a friend
and i hoped that someday
we’d both fall in love again

nobody’s seen your heart
you kept it secret for so long
and nobody has seen mine
though i hid it in a song
but i bent the words of faith
until all that’s left was form
and though i meant to give so much
my intention was stillborn

and there was blood and it was dark
though the midwife’s eye did shine
and i held you in my arm
but i could not give you life

nobody’s seen the wind
that doesn’t mean it isn’t there
i stood out on the bridge
and felt it blow thru my hair
and i knew i’d be okay
though i’d lost you as a friend
and i hoped that someday
we’d both fall in love again
