Lyric

You are like that patch of sunbeams, warm and bright

Swaying deep behind my eyelids, out of sight

If this wind were to take me far away from here

Where would you go, and would you stay near?

You are just like the wind, moving light and free

Brushing everything aside, so easily

Leaving nothing but a smile behind in the air

Yeah... just a smile, standing there

That clear, open sky looks just like your back

As you set off on a journey, leaving a track

The bird crying softly by the river’s side

Is just filling the space where you used to reside

That clear, open sky is now, in its own way

Making me feel even colder today

But this wind that dances and scatters around

Is gentle as you, without making a sound

You are like that shining star, high above

Still bright when I close my eyes, full of love

Inside this storm, with the rain and the wind

I wonder if you’re crying, or if you’ve grinned?

That clear, open sky looks just like your back

As you set off on a journey, leaving a track

The bird crying softly by the river’s side

Is just filling the space where you used to reside

That clear, open sky is now, in its own way

Making me feel even colder today

But this wind that dances and scatters around

Is gentle as you, without making a sound

The sky that was once so clear and bright

Has turned dark before I knew it, into the night

Even the flowers that bloomed with pride

Are quietly withering, with nowhere to hide

I wonder if you’re looking up at the same sky

And thinking the same thing as I, passing by?

If only this wind could carry my heart

And reach where you are, so we’re never apart

That clear, open sky looks just like your back

As you set off on a journey, leaving a track

The bird crying softly by the river’s side

Is just filling the space where you used to reside

That clear, open sky is now, in its own way

Making me feel even colder today

But this wind that dances and scatters around

Is gentle as you, without making a sound
