Strong winds of promise that will blow away the doubt and fear
If I can dream of a warmer sun, where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear."

Slander my name all over the place
Do anything that you want to do

Gotta confess, my hair is a mess
Your mama will scold, your daddy will shout
As we come in, the way we went out."

And time can do so much
Are you still mine?

Or he'll grow to be an angry young man some day
Take a look at you and me."

People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never shared
And no one dared disturb the sound of silence."

And soon I'll hear old winter song
But I miss you most of all, my darling
When autumn leaves start to fall."

You thought that all would last forever
But like the weather nothing can ever
And be in time, stay gold."
