let the wind blow

Colin Vearncombe (black)

She's got the greenest eyes I've ever seen
And I'm paper thin
She's staring through my skin at what was unspoken
She said: there's no need to cry you've always known
That the ones who fly can take on too much strain
And be broken

And if you can hear me, hear me sing
I don't remember anything
Those days are dead and gone away
Let the wind blow, let the wind blow
Let the wind blow

And I couldn't cry, we'd made our peace when he turned and smiled
"remember me with joy" he said "or don't do it all"

And if you can hear me, hear me sing
I don't remember anything
Those days are dead and gone away
Let the wind blow, let the wind blow

The bravest man I have ever known
"I'm standing on the edge", he said
"and looking over"
"Let the wind blow, let the wind blow"
