Blowing Away

The Fifth Dimension

You ole fire, I’m mad with desire,

You’re my favorite one.

You got me cookin' with the fever,

Got me runnin' for the sun.

Uh-huh, runnin' for the sun,

I feel so high, I feel like I may

Go blowin' away (go blowin' away) blowin' away.

Blow, blow, blowin' away (blow, blow, blowin' away).

My well meaner, my day fancy dreamer

Oh, what can it be?

Well, it’s something like a power,

Like a hold, and it’s holdin' me.

Uh-huh, and it’s holdin' me,

I feel so high, I feel like I may

Go blowin' away (blowin' away) blowin' away.

Blow, blow, blowin' away (blow, blow, blowin' away)

Blow, blow, blowin' away.

My long laster, my soft-hearted master

Ain’t been born and bred.

But he’s standin' in my doorway in my mind

Up above my, up above, up above my head,

Up above my head, up above my head,
