Any Way the Wind Blows

Any Way the Wind Blows - Eva Noblezada/Jewelle Blackman/Yvette Gonzalez-Nacer/Kay Trinidad

Lyrics by：Anaïs Mitchell

Eurydice was a hungry young girl

A runaway from everywhere she'd ever been

She was no stranger to the world

No stranger to the wind

Weather ain't the way it was before

Ain't no spring or fall at all anymore

It's either blazing hot or freezing cold

Any way the wind blows

And there ain't a thing that you can do

When the weather takes a turn on you

'Cept for hurry up and hit the road

Any way the wind blows

Wind comes up ooh

Do you hear that sound

Wind comes up move

To another town

Ain't no body gonna stick around

When the dark clouds roll

Any way the wind blows

You met the Fates

Remember them

Anybody got a match

Always singing in the back of your mind gimme that

Wherever it was this young girl went

The fates were close behind

People turn on you just like the wind

Everybody is a fair-weather friend

In the end you're better of alone

Any way the wind blows

When your body aches to lay it down

When you're hungry and there ain't enough to go 'round

Ain't no length to which a girl won't go

Any way the wind blows

Wind comes up

And sometimes you think

Wind comes up you

Would do anything

Just to fill your belly full of food

Find a bed that you could fall into

Where the weather wouldn't follow you

Wherever you go

Any way the wind blows

Now Orpheus was the son of a muse

And you know how those muses are

Sometimes they abandon you

And this poor boy

He wore his heart on his sleeve

You might say he was naive to the ways of the world

But he had a way with words

And the rhythm and the rhyme

And he sang just like a bird up on a line

And it ain't because I'm kind

But his mama was a friend of mine

And I liked to hear him sing

And his way of seeing things

So I took him underneath my wing

And that is where he stayed

Until one day
