Song Description

This is an empowering song for women about about aging. Although a woman may see visal signs of aging, what matters most is that she still has some "wind in her sails"

Lyrics

WIND IN MY SAILS


When I stare at the photographs
Of the way that I used to be
Is that sweet young girlish figure
Just a memory?
But I've finally come to grips now
When a gray hair makes me blue
Since I can't hold back the river of time
I might as well sail thru

CHORUS:
I still got some wind in my sails
The open seas of all my dreams are calling me
I'll steer clear where fools will tread
Or I'll steer straight full steam ahead
While I still got some wind in my sails


I've been thru troubled waters
And I've faced the winds of change
Though I've added candles to my cake
That cake still tastes the same
There's a lot of women out there
In the same boat, that I know
Hey, there aint no need for droppin' anchor yet
When there's plenty of miles to go

CHORUS:
BRIDGE:
Somewhere between the Blue Lagoon and On Golden Pond
There's an ocean of happiness my heart is riding on

CHORUS:

Tag: I'm gonna keep an even keel, with this old heart behind the wheel
And the wind in my sails
