the things we carry
every road holds a story.
every journey leaves something behind.
every road holds a story.
every journey leaves something behind.
A memory from The Things We Carry.

Somewhere along the way, the road beneath our feet changes.
The soft sand of our younger years gives way to stones, and we learn to watch where we step. We become careful with our hearts, sometimes without realizing how much of ourselves we've tucked away.
Yet beneath all those years, something gentle remains.
When the Wind Shifts is a reminder that we don't have to surrender our wisdom to rediscover our tenderness. The stones can stay. The years can stay.
There is still a path beneath them.
This song is about finding the courage to open the door again. Not because we've forgotten what hurt us, but because we finally understand that love was always worth the risk.
This track’s approved reflection and lyrics are ready for the next liner-notes update.
