lyrics

I don't know the wind
but I'm damn sure she knows me
older than my grandma
older than the holy trinity

If you listen close she will play for you
a quiet symphony
talk about the kingdoms of old
and the boy from Galilee

I heard it from the wind
spoke of love, she spoke of sin
she told me in a storm
she was sweet, she was forlorn

If I were a sailboat
I'd hold her every day
If I were a windmill
I'd ache when she was away

If you pay attention she will dance for you
a wild green ballet
talk of the beginning of beginnings
we will whisper but we will not pray

I heard it from the wind
spoke of love, she spoke of sin
she told me in a storm
she was sweet, she was forlorn
