about

Inspired by what else but the wind! The force that blows in our hair and upon our face. Walking with our infant daughter through the wind in the park one day gave inspiration for the drums and steady guitar melody. We rushed to our living room where the TASCAM was set up and the lyrics flowed out while we played. The song was born by the end of the night.

lyrics

The Wind
By The Lonesome Doves

A summer love
must meet its end
the breeze becomes
a blowing wind

You say its so
but we aren't friends
You can't see me coming
I'm like the wind

ooh ooh ah
ooh ooh ah

I turn the tide
and shake the clouds
a force that cannot
be pushed around

Hurricanes
and twisters turn
I'll quench the fire
or fuel the burn.

ooh ooh ah
ooh ooh ah

I shake the clouds
Say who where when
I don't play fair
Fair-weather friend

A bitter cold
is blowing in
a summer love
must meet its end.

ooh ooh ah
ooh ooh ah
ooh ooh ah
ooh ooh

ah
