[Arrangement: Acoustic guitar with playful rhythm, airy synth pads, and solid percussion. The tone is whimsical, slightly ironic.]
[Silence]
[Instrumental, Guitar, Piano, Organ, Synth, Bass, Percussion, Drums]
[Intro]
[Instrumental Intro: Pulsing Bass, Organ Swell, Muted Guitar Chops, Rising Synth Filter]
[Minimal Beat, Sub Bass, Spoken Vocal]
Opened the door
(Just a crack)
Let the whole world
(Come rushing back)
Didn’t think twice
(About the view)
One little moment
(And oops it flew)
[Chorus]
Oops it flew
(Out the window)
Now…
(It’s blowin’ in the wind)
Oops who knew
(So, now we know)
Gone…
(Gone with the wind)
[Verse 1]
Paper on the table
(Started to rise)
A careless breeze
(Took us by surprise)
Words on a page
(Scattered and free)
Dancing away
(From you and me)
[Chorus]
Oops it flew
(Out the window)
Now…
(It’s blowin’ in the wind)
Oops who knew
(So, now we know)
Gone…
(Gone with the wind)
[Arrangement: Percussion becomes slightly more rhythmic, light hand drums.]
[Refrain]
Blowin’ away
(Drift and glide)
Blowin’ away
(No place to hide)
Blowin’ away
(Up and high)
All that we held
(Said goodbye)
[Verse 2]
We tried to grab it
(But it was too late)
Chasing the moment
(We couldn’t negotiate)
Funny how silence
(Replaces the sound)
When everything’s lifted
(And nowhere is found)
[Arrangement: Soft electric guitar enters, echoing melodic fragments.]
[Bridge]
Rolled down the window
(Rollin’ on the highway)
Maybe it needed
(To fly away)
I hate it when loss
(Is how we see)
What really matters
(To you and me)
[Final Chorus]
Oops it flew
(Out the window)
Now…
(It’s blowin’ in the wind)
Oops who knew
(Now we know)
Gone…
(Gone with the wind)
Oops it flew
(Into the blue)
And now we’re left
(To start anew)
[Arrangement: Instruments thin out to acoustic guitar and airy synth.]
[Outro]
Just a breeze
(And it was gone)
Just a moment
(To move along)
Oops it flew
(Out the window)
Now only echoes
(In the wind blow)
