MIGHTY WIND
By Jackson Slade © 2002



That Mighty Wind
I was caught by this vision That was takin’ my time
Somewhere in a mystery, tryin’ to make up mu mind
I had this chill that someone called out my name
They said, “they’d been somewhere healin’
Somewhere healin’ their pain
Ther was snow on the mountain, the sky was so blue
They say this kinda weather been long overdue
If anyone had told me I’d be feelin’ this way
I’d say hey! You must be crazy, I just started this today!
Chorus:
Cause I been somewhere lookin’ for somethin’ to do
Holdin’ my life, tryin’ to be true
Waitin’ forever, hoping to give in
Then one crazy day I get this call
Just when I felt I was fallin’ away from it all
That’s when they told me, “you’re facin’ the wind”

I was starin’ like a fool, till nothin’ showed in my eyes
I was so far in the backgroud
I couldn’t figure out why
‘N if anyone had told me that I’d be feelin’ this way
I’d say hey! You must be crazy I just started this today
Chorus:
Cause I been somewhere lookin’ for somethin’ to do
Holdin’ my life, tryin’ to be true
Waitin’ forever, hoping to give in
Then one crazy day I get this call
Just when I felt I was fallin’ away from it all
That’s when they told me, “you’re facin’ the wind”

I could see by the moon
It was lightin’ the sky
Ther were voices of angels I could hear them nearby
Then I had this chill, someone whispered my name
They said, “they’d been somewhere healin’
Somewhere healin’ their pain
Bridge:
‘N did I wanta go
They’d show me the way
I can take all my troubles
Throw ‘em in the middle of the bay
If anyone had told me I’d be feelin’ this way
I’d say hey! You must be crazy, I just started this today!
Chorus:
Cause I been somewhere lookin’ for somethin’ to do
Holdin’ my life, tryin’ to be true
Waitin’ forever, hoping to give in
Then one crazy day I get this call
Just when I felt I was fallin’ away from it all
That’s when shouted, “Stop facin’ the wind, stop facin’ the wind, stop facin’ the wind….(turn around you fool)
That mighty wind

Jackson Slade Lewisburg, Tennessee

"Style of music is hard to give a
specific Genre to.. My Spanish roots
come to the surface in my rhythms, and
melodies to some extent. I've always
loved all styles of music, and I guess
my motivation comes from loving how,
through music, we make the world
warmer and smaller, not so vast.
I guess you could say I'm
Rock/Country/Jazz/Pop/Blues/Latin Blues and a few more things too ugly to mention" ... more
