How many roads
must a man walk down
before you call
him a man?
How many seas
must a white dove sail
before she sleeps
in the sand?
How many times
must the cannon balls
fly before
they're forever banned?
The answer my friend
is blowing in the wind
The answer
is blowing in the wind~
How many years
can a mountain exist
before it's 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 pretending
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 can see
the sky?
How many ears
must one man have
before he can
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~
