Johnny Rivers - Cast Your Fate To The Wind Lyrics






A month of nights, a year of days
Octobers drifting into Mays
You set your sail when the tide comes in
And you cast your fate to the wind

You shift your course along the breeze
Won't sail up wind on memories
The empty sky is your best friend
And you just cast your fate to the wind

That time has such a way of changing a man throughout the years
And now you're rearranging your life through all your tears
Alone, alone

There never was, there couldn't be
A place in time for men to be
Who'd drink the dark and laugh at day
And let their wildest dreams blow away

So now you're old, you're wise, you're smart
You're just a man with half a heart
You wonder how it might have been
Had you not cast your fate to the wind

    A month of nights, a year of days
    Octobers drifting into Mays
    I set my sail when the tide comes in
    And I just cast my fate to the wind
    I shift my course along the breeze
    Won't sail up wind on memories
    The empty sky is my best friend
    And I just cast my fate to the wind

    That time has a way of changing a man throughout the years
    And now I’m rearranging my life through all my tears
    Alone, alone, alone

    There never was, there couldn't be
    A place in time for men like me
    Who'd drink the dark and laugh at day
    And let their wildest dreams blow away
    That time has a way of changing a man throughout the years
    And now I’m rearranging my life through all my tears
    Alone, alone, alone

    So now I’m old, I’m wise, I’m smart
    I’m just a man with half a heart
    I wonder how it might have been
    And I hadn’t cast my fate to the wind
    To the wind, to the wind
