How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' how many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

and it's strange
how we're wasting our lives
novacaine
when the pain helps us rise
here we stay
though it's only a clever game
running from our lives
and we linger on...
but if we try to lift up our eyes
replacing the lies
we own this moment
everything and everyone and in the end we all are one
the truth will not be denied
and it's strange
how we're selling our time and we wait
we are lost in a clever game
running from our lives
and they lead us on...
