She tells him she thinks she needs to be free 

He tells her he doesn't understand 

She takes his hand 

She tells him nothing's working out the way they planned



She's so many women 

He can't find the one who was his friend 

So he's hanging on to half her heart 

He can't have the restless part

So he tells her to hasten down the wind



Then he agrees he thinks she needs to be free 

Then she says she'd rather be with him 

But it's just a whim 

By which she hopes to keep him on the limb



She's so many women 

He can't find the one who was his friend 

So he's hanging on to half her heart 

He can't have the restless part

So he tells her to hasten down the wind
