[Verse 1]
You looked away when I pulled the sheets from the bed
I never figured it out but baby one of us bled
Giving me nonchalance
Was it something that I said?
What were we talking about
Cos I forget?
[Verse 2]
Epiphanies knock around like loose change in your pocket
You're reading Ulysses but you just don't get it
[Pre-Chorus]
November is coming on and the nights are getting longer
Summer always deceives
Little promises like the orange leaves
[Chorus]
Blowing in a wind machine
Wind machine
Wind machine
Wind machine
[Verse 3]
I looked away when you pulled the crown off your head
You told me baby
"I think it's meant for you instead"
I only got a little time now left to dine on virgin wine
Valley of the hungry ghost
What you really want the most
[Chorus]
Is blowing in a wind machine
Wind machine
Blowing round in a wind machine
Wind machine
[Bridge]
Like the footsteps running
Running right behind you
But they don't catch you when you come back down
Like a snowflake falling in the summertime
I'll see you around
[Ad lib]
I'll see you around round round round...
(Blowin' and blowin' and blowin'...)
Blowin' round in a wind machine
Wind machine
Promises in a wind machine
Little leaves in a wind machine
[Outro]
November is coming on and the nights are getting longer
Summer always deceives
Little promises like the orange leaves
