Feel this wind, breathe the air
Internalize our plight
Acids and oxides of every kind
Invisible to your sight
Breathe it in, breathe it out
Respirate it until you die
Some of us go a step beyond
and ask ourselves why
Yes, the wind can carry, flourocarbons to me
Yes, the wind can carry, carbon dioxide to me
Yes, the wind can carry, acid rain to me
Yes, the wind can carry, the smog to me
The wind and weather can carry pollution over land and sea
The wind and weather can carry pollution to you and me
The winds blow around the world, I want to live my life
free from avoidable plights
Kill some ozone, kill a forest
Maybe the human genetic seed
Poisoned water, air, and soil
by people poisoned by greed
Rich today, dead tomorrow
What do they care?
The rest of us treasure life and beauty
and worry about our air
Yes, society can spread, ideas about our Earth
Yes, society can legislate policies to put Nature first
People who care about Nature can make a change
Save a tropical rain forest, save a mountain range
Save our fragile world, we want to live our lives free from
avoidable plights
(bridge)
Yes, the wind can carry, oxygen to me
Yes, the wind can carry, fragrances to me
The wind is our friend, we have been its enemy
It will forgive us, when our mistakes we see
Respect the wind around our world, let us live our lives
without any avoidable plights
Alternate: So humanity won't be gone with the wind
If we can see the light
The wind will carry our life
