I Held the Cool Breeze

I was a born stranger

I'd run along with the sea

Go home writing, dream of other days

I'd be sitting at a table

Somebody would be talking to me

I couldn't make it back in time

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I was your son

I was your brother

I was your lover

I was nothing but trouble

Then I sold a story

I could make a scene

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I couldn't feel anything

I was empty, I was drifting

Birds circled in the sky

It was complete night

I was in the backseat

Being taken to border town

There was nothing for me there

I pulled the window

Let my hands trail

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze

I held the cool breeze
