[VERSE 1]
Carried your mistake
Like a case of red wine
Get drunk on the pity
Till you offer your hand

A certain revelation
And the road's a ruin
And you knew it all along
It's the man I really am

[Chorus]
I did what you asked of me, baby
And I try try tried to pretend that I was better
But there's only so much I can do
When you cry cry cry in the night
When the four winds blow (oooh-oh)

When the four winds blow (oooh-oh)

[VERSE 2]
Walking in a daze on a saint's old bones
We don't know where we're going
But it's pretty enough
So far away from home
But my doors are open
I can show you where to go
If you let me know where you are
[Chorus]
I did what you asked of me, baby
And I try try tried to pretend that I was better
But there's only so much I can do
When you cry cry cry in the night
When the four winds blow (oooh-oh)

When the four winds blow (oooh-oh)

[VERSE 3]
Tried to write a letter
But I couldn't find the words
So I tossed and I turned
Trying to figure it out
Didn't see it then
With the postcard views
But you cried with the wind
'cause you knew it'll blow me down

[Chorus]
I did what you asked of me, baby
And I try try tried to pretend that I was better
But there's only so much I can do
When you cry cry cry in the night
When the four winds blow (oooh-oh)
When the four winds blow (oooh-oh)
