lyrics

In the night, the cold dark night, I went down to, the river’s edge
That old moon, shining bright and high, those clouds racing by, wind and noise
That’s the sound, of you and me, being torn, apart, of you and me, being torn …
Blowing breeze, crying out your name, breaks around my head, drowning me
I stand there, rooted to the spot, wind, trees, river, rocks, swirling round
That’s the sound, of you and me, being torn, apart, of you and me, being torn …

Blowing breeze, crying out your name, breaks around my head, drowning me
