Winds of Change Lyrics

I miss you more than you could know
I watch the grass on the back lawn grow
And I will not allow Winds of Change to blow
And I hope you decide to come back home

'Cause this heavy heart, oh, how it's yearned
'Cause I've been alone far too long
When are you coming home, my love?
My love

You reach out for me in the night
And an errant finger pokes me in the eye
And I leave your contact lenses on the bedside table
And I'm hoping you decide to come back home

'Cause this heavy heart, oh, how it's yearned
'Cause I've been alone far too long
When are you coming home, my love?
My love

Oh, you went running with my heart
And it's a long, long, long way back
And this right here, well it just ain't living
Oh, I want you to come back

Well I've been alone far too long
When are you coming home, my love?
Well I've been alone far too long
When are you coming home, my love?
My love

Well I've been alone far too long
When are you coming home, my love?
Well I've been alone far too long
When are you coming home, my love?
My love

Winds of Change Song Chart

Vance Joy wrote this song just prior to a three-month vacation while studying for a law degree. It proved to be a breakthrough for the fledgling singer-songwriter. "'Winds of Change' is the first song I ever wrote that I thought was any good," the Melbourne native said. "It was 2009. It was a breakthrough. It planted the seed in my head of me being able to write good songs."

"So I went away and I had all these ideas running through my head, I didn't take an instrument, I just made notes in a book," he continued. "When I came back I wrote 'From Afar.' 'Winds of Change' was the first coherent song I wrote that I wanted to show people. I'm glad that song opens that album. It was the change in my song writing, I discovered that strumming rhythm. It started something."

Who Am I Lyrics

Hold me up to the light
Tell me if the sun comes shining through
And I've got this heaviness in my chest
Since your love came breaking through

And I wanna know where it's coming from
Where this is coming from
Where this is coming from
And I wanna know what you're running from
What are you running from?

Who Am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?

Lay my dreams down at your feet
Baby, watch out where you step
And there's no need for us
Knowing all the answers yet

And I wanna know what you're running from
What are you running from?
What are you running from?
And I wanna know where it's coming from
Where is this coming from?

Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?

You're back for a minute and you're gone
And I'll never know how close I came
You're back for a minute and you're gone
And I'll never know how close
You're back for a minute and you're gone
And I'll never know how

Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I, who am I
Without you, without you?
Who am I?

Georgia Lyrics

She is something to behold
Elegant and bold
She is electricity
Running to my soul, oh

And I could easily lose my mind
The way you kiss me will work each time
Calling me to come back to bed
Singing Georgia on my mind

And I, and I

Lips generous and warm
You build me up like steps
Eyes innocent and wild
Remind me what it's like, oh

And I could easily lose my mind
The way you kiss me will work each time
Pulling me back into the flames
And I'm burning up again, I'm burning up

And I, I never understood what was at stake
I never thought your love was worth it's wait
Well now you've come and gone
I finally worked it out, I worked it out

I never should have told you
I never should have let you see inside
Don't want it troubling in your mind
Won't you let it be

I never should have told you
I never should have let you see inside
Don't want it troubling in your mind
Won't you let it be

I never should have told you
I never should have let you see inside
Don't want it troubling in your mind
Won't you let it be

I never should have told you
I never should have let you see inside
Don't want it troubling in your mind
Won't you let it be

And I could easily lose my mind
The way you kiss me will work each time
Pulling me back into the flames
And I'm burning up again, I'm burning up

And I, I never understood what was at stake
I never thought your love was worth its wait
Well now you've come and gone
I finally worked it out, I worked it out, oh, ooh, oh

Georgia Song Chart

Vance Joy wrote this on January 1, 2014 following a period of struggling to come up with any songs. "The well doesn't dry up," he said. "Before 'Georgia,' I wasn't feeling particularly inspired, then that song came out of nowhere. I was on a high for five days. You can't force it, but it's nice to know that now you recognize when a song is coming."

This is Joy's favorite song from his Dream Your Life Away album to play live. He explained in an interview with 89.3 KPCC: "It's got a nice groove and it's slightly different in terms of the flavor and the instrumentation than the other songs on my album."

The song calls for Joy to commit hard when performing it. "I guess there's no way of singing it without giving a lot of yourself. You have to really bring it for the vocal, because the vocal is quite high, and there's a couple of moments where I really, it's just me and my voice, and there's no other instruments," he said. "In those moments, I guess they require you to push, push yourself. And it feels good, and I think the people can connect with that when they're watching you give everything. Hopefully they think it's real."
