Story Behind The Song

I was in Ignese, Ontario on a 2 week getaway from the things of man and was listening to the wind blowing over the lake and through the trees along the shoreline, watching as it moved the branches and leaves back and forth in no particular or methodical fashion, and thought about how our lives work in a very similar way. The wind reminded me of the consistency of life and all its parts, from people, to animals, to the earth, to politics, to energy sources, to education, ect. All these things throughout the course of history have evolved over time. So must they continue to evolve, as to allow for the planet and mankind to support itself and thrive in all areas for generations to come. The Windmill, representing "change" has to turn.

Lyrics

It isn't what you said/it isn't what you've heard/it's an ever-changing forward movement/action speaking louder then words/embrace the change as it keeps coming/face the storm and live my brother/there's something better down this road yeah/we're gonna make it home

The whole world wants to learn/and if the wind is life/then the windmill has to turn/tonight/it spins tonight

It isn't what you said/it isn't what you've heard/it's a non-stop action packed/ movement speaking louder then words/lets face the wind as it keeps coming/lead the way and reach for something/there's something better down this road yeah/we're gonna make it home

You close your eyes and wish for something new/but wishful thinking isn't all that you can do/it's not how many breaths that you can take/so take it away

The whole I see/and the air I breathe/is the fire you walk/ in your sweet release/the windmill has to turn tonight/ it spins tonight/it turns to tonight
