WARREN ZEVON - HASTEN DOWN THE WIND lyrics

rate me

Written by Warren Zevon 1973 Warner-Tamerlane Publishing Corp./Darkroom Music BMI

She tells him she thinks she needs to be free

He tells her he doesn't understand

She takes his hand

She tells him nothing's working out the way they planned

She's so many women

He can't find the one who was his friend

So he's hanging on to half her heart

He can't have the restless part

So he tells her to hasten down the wind

Then he agrees he thinks she needs to be free

Then she says she'd rather be with him

But it's just a whim

By which she hopes to keep him on the limb

She's so many women

He can't find the one who was his friend

So he's hanging on to half her heart

He can't have the restless part

So he tells her to hasten down the wind
