When The Wind Blows

I went back today

To the place where i was born

Where all my memories toss

Like an ocean in a storm

Standing by the willow tree

Waiting for the rain to come

Something inside of me

Made me feel young

When i was still a girl

In the house where i grew tall

My father said to me

It's the oak tree that will fall

Notice how the willow tree

Is bending as the rain comes down

But notice the willow tree

Still wears a crown

I know a part of me

When the wind blows

A flowing willow tree

When the wind blows

When the cold wind blows

I went back today

To the place where i grew up

Where dreams are left behind

Like communion in a cup

Standing by the willow tree

Watching as the lights went on

I found a part of me

I thought was gone

I know a part of me

When the wind blows

A flowing willow tree

When the wind blows

When the cold wind blows
