I Can See the Wind Lyrics

I cannot make it, girl, through the day
Ah babe, but I can see the wind
I cannot seem to make my way
Ah babe, but I can see the wind.

Float in smoke, let it father me
Ah babe, but I can see the wind
What man is doin' doesn't bother me
Ah babe, 'cause I can see the wind.

I do not seem to hear myself
Ah babe, but I can see the wind
I am a part of somethin' else
Ah babe, but I can see the wind.

Shadowed clouds may smother men
Ah babe, but I can see the wind
Letting out the other me
Ah babe, but I can see the wind.

The space around me isn't any more
Ah babe, but I can see the wind
I think I'm standing' but there is no floor
Ah babe, but I can see the wind.

I can see the wind
I can see the wind
I can see the wind
I can see the wind
I can see the wind
I can see the wind
I can see the wind

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for I Can See the Wind lyrics by Bobby Darin

He can see the bigger picture…that the existence he is experiencing is unimportant and that he is part of something bigger and more profound. He is unencumbered by life’s trivialities and not bound by his ego, he is enlightened/evolved and is able to experience inner peace and true freedom. A simple but deep song.
