lyrics

Peter walks the streets with books in hand
Poets lost words and forgotten romance
He stops in the footsteps of their words
Hears the cry and call of sullen seabirds

Peter watches the past crumble down
Old buildings bulldozed to the ground
He watches the sails pull out to see
Thinks this has been for centuries

And he says, out loud
This can't be
Thrown to the wind

Peter flips the pages in search of a song
Trying to prove he's not the one that's wrong
He takes a morning stroll down by the beach
Hears the mermaids singin' each to each

Peter's people keep him occupied
Though he has a hard time feeling tied
He watches the brushes spreading paint
Wonders how long this will remain

And he says, out loud
This can't be
Thrown to the wind
