I watch the wind blow brown leaves to the ground |
|
And blow along the sidewalks of this town |
|
I can see the wind as it blew her hair time and time again |
|
Oh, what I'd give, Lord, to be the wind |
|
Oh, what I'd give to be the wind |
|
To be free to leave this awful place I'm in |
|
It's hopeless 'cause I haven't got a penny or a friend |
|
Oh, what I'd give, Lord, to be the wind |
|
This same wind tomorrow will be gone |
|
To blow across the cotton fields of home |
|
It will gently touch the lovely face I long to touch again |
|
Oh, what I'd give, Lord, to be the wind |
|
Oh, what I'd give to be the wind |
|
To be free to leave this awful place I'm in |
|
It's hopeless 'cause I haven't got a penny or a friend |
|
Oh, what I'd give, Lord, to be the wind |
