Like the Winds

A girl I knew a year ago

Off she went from my heart and home

I sent her away, why I don't know

I suppose it was I had to roam

I might not have known what she could be

And might have lied for the reason I told

With that girl I could never have been free

But if we knew love I would never be cold

I got word she sometimes thinks of me

So I sent a note telling how I remember her love

So where to next we'll have to see

For I have no direction, like the winds above

I believe she loved but I was young

I was off and anxious to make the world mine

But as sit now and think of the song we sung

The joy that I search for might be ours in time

I got word she sometimes thinks of me

So I sent a note telling how I remember her love

So where to next we'll have to see

For I have no direction, like the winds above

Like the winds above

Like the winds above
