Where I’ll end up well I think,
Only God really knows”

“Sun, wind and water are
The best as I know
But it's on you, I
Think secretly
Sun, wind and water
High mountains and deep sea
That is my dream woven off.”

Sol, vind och vatten är
Det bästa som jag vet
Men det är på dig jag
Tänker I hemlighet
Sol, vind och vatten
Höga berg och djupa hav
Det, är mina drömmar vävda av

“I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's gonna happen or, who I'm gonna meet, where I'm gonna wind up.”

James Cameron (1954) Canadian film director

Jack
Titanic (1997)
Context: I got everything I need right here with me. I got air in my lungs, a few blank sheets of paper. I mean, I love waking up in the morning not knowing what's gonna happen or, who I'm gonna meet, where I'm gonna wind up. Just the other night I was sleeping under a bridge and now here I am on the grandest ship in the world having champagne with you fine people. I figure life's a gift and I don't intend on wasting it. You don't know what hand you're gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you... to make each day count.

“For standin' in your heart
Is where I want to be
And long to be,
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.”

Donovan (1946) Scottish singer, songwriter and guitarist

Catch The Wind (1965)
Context: When rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you near to kill my fears,
To help me to leave all my blues behind. For standin' in your heart
Is where I want to be
And long to be,
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind.

I recognise these buildings in my soul
I know each winding road
and every rise
is friendly and familiar to my eyes”

In east wind skies
Here's where I've cried
Where I've tried
Where God and the Tendaberry rise
Where Quakers and revolutionaries
Join for life”
