Երգի խոսքեր
[Տուն 1] You drew a compass on the back of your hand With a blue pen borrowed from the marching band Pointed north where the tall grass bends Said, “let’s see where the open road ends” I had a map with the edges torn You had a jacket too thin for the storm We traded names with a roadside sign And left our careful plans behind [Նախաքնարերգ] Every mile put color in the air Every wrong turn took us somewhere [Կրկներգ] We are counting fireflies over the river bend Making little promises we don’t have to defend If the world keeps changing, let it rearrange I’ll be right beside you, laughing in the strange Oh, wherever the wild wind carries us tonight We’ll turn the unknown into a brighter kind of light [Տուն 2] A red kite climbed over telephone lines Dipped like a dancer, then steadied in flight You found a field of sunflowers leaning Toward a secret only they were seeing We sang off-key to the passing trucks Made up a language out of seven bucks The horizon wore a violet flame And every distant hill forgot its name [Նախաքնարերգ] Every mile put color in the air Every wrong turn took us somewhere [Կրկներգ] We are counting fireflies over the river bend Making little promises we don’t have to defend If the world keeps changing, let it rearrange I’ll be right beside you, laughing in the strange Oh, wherever the wild wind carries us tonight We’ll turn the unknown into a brighter kind of light [Կամուրջ] Maybe the answer isn’t waiting at the end Maybe it’s the courage to begin again With your compass hand and my untidy map We can find a thousand ways to double back [Final chorus] We are counting fireflies over the river bend Making little promises we don’t have to defend If the world keeps changing, let it rearrange I’ll be right beside you, laughing in the strange Oh, wherever the wild wind carries us tonight We’ll turn the unknown into a brighter kind of light [Ելք] Wherever the wild wind carries us tonight We’ll turn the unknown into a brighter kind of light
