[Intro] The sky was burning low that night Just on the breeze and firelight [Verse 1] You looked at me like you already knew Just what the years would drag us through You were quiet but your eyes pulled tight I was all bones and borrowed time But we said nothing but we stayed till dawn Two drifters finding where they belong [Chorus] There's something in the wind That ties me back to you (Back to you) Like roots beneath the ground Holding something true I've tried to leave But you're in every song I sing (Every song I sing) We ain't whole But we're always everything [Verse 2] I've seen seasons take the best from me You kept a light on places I don't let folks see You called me home without saying a word Your silence louder than most hearts I've heard And when the house got cold and thin You were the place I could slip back in [Chorus] There's something in the wind That ties me back to you (Back to you) Like roots beneath the ground Holding something true I've tried to leave But you're in every song I sing (Every song I sing) We ain't whole But we're always everything [Bridge] Even when the miles turn cold Even when our hearts let go You're the thread in all I am You're the start, you're the end (Start, you're the end) [Chorus] There's something in the wind That ties me back to you (Back to you) Like roots beneath the ground Holding something true I've tried to leave But you're in every song I sing (Every song I sing) We ain't whole But we're always everything
