Another quiet Monday evening   This is the seventh in a row   I'm awake and barely breathing   In and out the great unknown   The distance singing softly   Calling out   Keeping time   From so far       I sit and watch the autumn colors change   In careful patches leaves are rearranged   The west wind blowin' through the window screen   I hope it's strong enough to carry me       Chorus:   It's been a long, long day   For a sad, sad song   How the nights get cold   When the summer moves on   Am I running too fast?   Is my heart worn thin?   Am I running too fast?   Am I chasing the wind?      The world won't stop it's spinning   I pretend I have a choice   About staying here or leaving   For the laughter and the noise   The distance singing softly   Calling out   Keeping time   From so far       I sit and watch the daylight dance away   I wonder where it goes and where it stays   The west wind blowin' through the window screen   I hope it's strong enough to carry me       Repeat Chorus      Am I chasing the wind?   Say...   Am I chasing the wind?      I sit and watch the autumn colors change   In careful patches leaves are rearranged   The west wind blowin' through the window screen   I hope it's strong enough to carry me       Repeat Chorus      It's been a long, long day   Hey...   It's been a long, long day   Say...   It's been a long, long day       Repeat Chorus
