If there's something that I would like to learn
Why do we as people like to turn?
Turn and dance for the world to see
We turn our backs on friends and enemies

If there's one thing that I could ask for
I beg you brings the winds to me once more
Oh how I miss the southern wind
That pulled me to my feet again
And turned me northward
Heading home

There's something that's been on my mind
Why are there people that are far too kind?
They'll make you love yourself at the start
But when they leave the cold takes back your heart

But if there's one thing that I could ask for
I beg you brings the winds to me once more
Oh how I miss the southern wind
That warmed my broken heart again
And turned me northward
Heading home

There's one thing I need to understand
Why do things leave when it all goes bad?
People, lovers, children, too
All the confidence I had in you
This vessel can't hold the weight anymore

Let me turn my back on those who hurt me
Warm the hearts of those who deserve me
Help me realize that
People come and go with time
But if there was one thing I need
It'd be the strength to believe in me

So if there's one thing that I could ask for
I beg you bring the winds to me once more
All the love and trust I had in me
Would surely be returned, you see
If it turns me northward
Heading home
