[Verse 1]
I stepped on soil I’d never seen
But something in me slowed
The air felt thick with memory
Like it already knew my bones
The hills leaned in to hear my breath
The sky held back the rain
And every stone beneath my feet
Whispered out my name
[Pre-Chorus]
No map could draw this line I feel
No voice had called me home
But something deep inside the earth
Said I was not alone
[Chorus]
Where the wind knows my name
And the rivers speak it low
Where the ground beneath my feet
Feels like somewhere I’ve always known
I am not a stranger here
Though I’ve never stood this place
There’s a fire in the roots
That remembers every trace
Where the wind knows my name
[Verse 2]
I walked a path of worn-down stone
My steps fell into rhyme
Like echoes left by those before
Were keeping me in time
A doorway stood with weathered wood
It opened without sound
And something in the quiet there
Reached up from the ground
[Pre-Chorus]
No photograph, no written line
Could tell me why I knew
But every breath I borrowed there
Felt older than the truth
[Chorus]
Where the wind knows my name
And the rivers speak it low
Where the ground beneath my feet
Feels like somewhere I’ve always known
I am not a stranger here
Though I’ve never stood this place
There’s a fire in the roots
That remembers every trace
Where the wind knows my name
[Bridge]
Call it blood or call it dream
Call it something I can’t see
But I felt it in my chest
Like it was calling back to me
I didn’t have to ask the way
I didn’t have to explain
The land just opened up its arms
And said, “You’ve come again”
[Final Chorus]
Where the wind knows my name
And the rivers speak it low
Where the ground beneath my feet
Feels like somewhere I’ve always known
I am not a stranger here
Though I’ve never stood this place
There’s a fire in the roots
That remembers every trace
Where the wind knows my name
