From the recording SING LOUDER
I started writing music to work through the grief of losing my fiancé. He told me he would come back to me like the wind. This song wrote itself on a still hot day when there was no breeze stirring, and I wondered if the wind…and love…would ever come back.
Lyrics
Weatherman says the wind's out of the southeast today
Travelling at zero miles per hour (that's pretty damn slow)
What I need to know is where's the air
That's gonna lift these beads of sweat from my brow?
Where are you wind, now?
The wind through the trees tends to ease my mind
Blowing the clouds around reveals a silver lining
What I need to know is where's the breeze
That's gonna ease these furrowed lines from my brow?
Where are you wind, now?
You told me that you'd come back like the wind into my life
Remind me of all the things I learned through the sorrow and the strife.
I'm listening for the wind now as it brushes through the trees
I'm praying that you'll answer me with a rustle of the leaves
Answer somehow
Where are you wind, now?
Where are you wind, now?
I wish the wind would carry me though my everyday
It's absence leaves me wondering why I came this way
What I'm praying for is a gale to blow my mind
And leave behind these thoughts of you
Come on wind blow through
You told me that you'd come back like the wind into my life
Remind me of all the things I learned through the sorrow and the strife.
I'm listening for the wind now as it brushes through the trees
I'm praying that you'll answer me with a rustle of the leaves
Answer somehow
Where are you wind, now?
