Catch the Wind - Joan Baez, Mary Chapin Carpenter

In the chilly hours and minutes

Of uncertainty

I want to be

In the warm hold of your loving mind.

To feel you all around me

And to take your hand

Along the sand,

Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.

When sundown pales the sky

I want to hide a while

Behind your smile,

And everywhere I’d look, your eyes I’d find.

For me to love you now

Would be the sweetest thing,

'T would make me sing,

Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.

Diddy di dee dee diddy diddy,

Diddy diddy diddy dee dee dee.

When rain has hung the leaves with tears

I want you near to kill my fears,

To help me to leave all my blues behind.

For standin' in your heart

Is where I want to be

And long to be,

Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.

Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.
