Strange that there are so few comments on such an old and famous song! and I even now don't understand it. I agree with Johnno7 and more with frijolito - he's an outsider etc., but what puzzles me is: we use to say that we talk to the wind when people don't listen to us or they just don't want to - we don't usually speak to the wind - literally or metaphorically - on purpose. Does he speak to anyone who won't listen to him? could be, but he doesn't seem concerned with other people. Or does he talk to the wind because he likes that? and why should he like talking to the wind? what for? I have no idea. Just to be yourself and express yourself in wonderful isolation, with a partner (the wind) who won't bother you? when he tried to talk to a real partner, that partner tried to instrucy, conduct, possess him and use up his time - all that will never happen if you talk to the silent wind (he cannot hear so he won't reply or disturb you). What do you think?

@thestamp I think wind is" meaning in world". Man is trying to reach it. Talking to the wind ( air ). But there is nothing there.
