I

I am trying to catch the wind,
But I don't know where it's going;
I am trying to find a way,
Without really knowing.

I will find my love in yours...,
You will find your love in mine;
We have to know the past,
If our love is going to last
Through years in time.

We are swimming into deep sea,
Finding our souls again;
Looking through time eternity,
Without knowing the day or when.

We will find the road to goals,
We will find the sun that shines
In our everyday song;
We must join and get a long,
Thorough years in time.

This is the goal of my dreams,
This is the turning of the road;
I shall be dreaming through a day,
In the early morning ray.

II

I am trying to catch the wind
In my hair,
I am trying to remember a thought
From a past year.

Like you I look for a moment,
Gone or near;
Like you I shall be dust,
Going nowhere.

Thoughts in time
Are stranded in our mind,
Wandering inside
Or lost behind.

Like you I look for a moment,
To sing my song;
Like you they turn to rust,
As they go along.

I am trying to catch the wind,
Of the moments gone;
The joys or sorrows they brought,
As they went along.
