lyrics
The old man, king of the wind, he is most cunning. To the quick he would cut you something wicked. The sting of his venom stays with you always.
Counting the weeks since we've changed, it's not so easy to put on a happy face. When we forgave our hearts, we made a deal or don't you remember?
At your first desperate urging, I fold. I know I'm a pawn in the game. But can you tell me, what was I saying? We seek old things over and over again. I can't say if that's really any good for me, I can't see through time.
So what will it be? Still will I not sober? It's not so easy to climb through the calendar. So far have I fallen before. Across the pages of yesterdays affairs. Sober or stoned, I cannot leave it alone.

I waited ten years for more music from this band. These three great songs were worth the wait. Their debut album "child bearing man" is also a fantastic wild romp, so check that out too. On the Water
supported by 16 fans who also own “Eternal Husband (Wind Wizard)”
This album was formative for me in high school. I just came back to it 8 years later and it still scratches an itch in my brain that not many other albums have come close to. It’s something special. vicnat
