Windmills Lyrics

We were young and full of hope then with the big decisions happily postponed
If you don't know what you want then you can end up with a lot of things you don't
Now they're tearing down the only town we've known

Well, the Roman Empire crumbled, they had yet to learn the laws of gravity
But the apple that doesn't wish to be eaten will eventually someday fall off the tree
Now they're tearing down the forest and here is the open sky
Out here there's no place to hide
We dreamed of a better life
We dreamed of another life


We dreamed of a better life
We dreamed of another life
At least we could try to try
I watched as those planes flew by
