Bargain With The Wind Millaway/Aalgard ©2026
It seems too late to ask forgiveness
The tide has already turned
When life is feeble and pain is near
Damn those bridges I once burned
The dangers were invisible
But the warning signs were there
Trying to bargain with the wind
Spins me round and round
All the cards I used to play
Are suddenly nowhere to be found
I never thought about tomorrow
When life was nothing but fun
Regret took over expectation
Negotiations said and done
I couldn't see the danger,
though the signs were there.
Trying to bargain with the wind
Spins me round and round
All the cards I used to play
Are suddenly nowhere to be found
The time for prayer is before the pain
The time for talking is before the need
The hand that gives fear and hope
Grows best when planted as a seed
I couldn't see the danger,
though the signs were there.
Trying to bargain with the wind
Spins me round and round
All the cards I used to play
Are suddenly nowhere to be found
I thought the dangers were invisible
Now I know the signs were there
This will not be the arrangement on the song as Angie is developing an original melody and bridge. Mostly concerned with the lyrics on this one for now.
