How many roads must a man walk down, |
Before they call him a man |
How many seas must a white dove sail, |
Before she sleeps in the sand |
How many times must the cannonballs fly, |
Before they are forever banned |
During the chorus: |
The answer, my friend, |
Is blowing in the wind |
The answer is blowing in the wind |
How many years must a mountain exist, |
Before it is washed to the sea |
How many years can some people exist, |
Before they're allowed to be free |
How many times can a man turn his head, |
And pretend that he just doesn't see |
The answer, my friend, |
Is blowing in the wind |
The answer is blowing in the wind |
How many times must a man look up, |
Before he really see the sky |
How many years must one man have, |
Before he can hear people cry |
How many deaths will it take till he knows, |
That too many people have died |
The answer, my friend, |
Is blowing in the wind |
The answer is blowing in the wind |
The answer, my friend, |
Is blowing in the wind |
The answer is blowing in the wind |
