All remain the same, though a generation comes and goes the earth stands forever
Nothing satisfies, all is weary and tried, nothing's new and nothing's remembered
So the cycle remains, in a world that is vain
Like chasing the wind
Like chasing the wind
And so will it end right where it begins
Like chasing the wind
Now my knowledge increased and my heart never ceased to know wisdom, folly and madness
Thinking pleasure I'd find, as the blind lead the blind, all I found were toil and sadness
No advantage was won, here under the sun
Like chasing the wind
Like chasing the wind
And so will it end right where it begins
Like chasing the wind
'Midst all this vanity, God has an economy
In this downward fall, take Him as your all
So I labored in vain knowing all that I gained was just left to the man who came after
All our days are vexed, and our heart doesn't rest, though sorrow is better than laughter
I perceived one fate, I just couldn't relate
Like chasing the wind
Like chasing the wind
And so will it end right where it begins
Like chasing the wind
Like chasing the wind
Like chasing the wind
And so will it end right where it begins
Like chasing the wind
