Title:

“Thorns in the Wind”

Full Song Lyrics:

(Verse 1)
Am G
In the heart of the city, beneath the neon lights,
F C
I found my solace, in the dead of the night.
Am G
Among the concrete jungles, and the solemn trees,
F C
I found my soul, lost in the evening breeze.

(Chorus)
Am G
Thorns in the wind, oh how they sting,
F C
Life’s bitter symphony, in a song we sing.
Am G
Thorns in the wind, they pierce the skin,
F C
Yet, the melody of life, still rings within.

(Verse 2)
Am G
I’ve walked on broken glass, and I’ve danced in the rain,
F C
Life’s a merry circus, veiled in joy and pain.
Am G
In the labyrinth of dreams, where reality thins,
F C
I found my essence, like thorns in the wind.

(Chorus)
Am G
Thorns in the wind, oh how they sting,
F C
Life’s vivid canvas, in a portrait we bring.
Am G
Thorns in the wind, they cut so thin,
F C
Yet, the symphony of life, plays on within.

(Outro)
Am G
So, here’s to the thorns, and the songs they sing,
F C
Here’s to life, and the joy it brings.
Am G
Here’s to the thorns, and the wounds they mend,
F C
Here’s to us, like thorns in the wind.
