He set his hopes on Monday

Thinkin' time would make it right

But those days kept rollin' by him

Without a struggle or a fight

And he won't know what he's missin'

He just spends his lifetime listenin' to the wind



Well, he never had a problem

'Cause he never took the time

And he'd never call a friend up

So he'd never lose the dime

And he won't know what he's missin

He just spends his lifetime listenin' to the wind



Chasin' the wind

Chasin' the wind

Never seemed to care

He was dancin' in the air

Chasin' the wind

Chasin' thewind

Searchin' for the gold at rainbow's end



He would say there's no creator

'Cept the words were never clear

Did he simply hesitate or

Give a little in to fear

But the truth as he woud see it

Would reduce him to believin' in a lie



Chasin' the wind

Chasin' the wind

Never seemed to care

He was dancin' in the air

Chasin' the wind

Chasin' thewind

Searchin' for the gold at rainbow's end



The beginning of all wisdom

Is to hold to what is true

Better a poor and wise man

Than to be a wealthy fool

For a wise man never misses

What a fool ignores by listenin' to the wind



Chasin' the wind

Chasin' the wind

Never seemed to care

He was dancin' in the air

Chasin' the wind

Chasin' thewind

Searchin' for the gold at rainbow's end
