When the wind was green
At the start of the spring
When the wind was green
Like a living thing
It was on my lips
And its kiss was fair
You were there
When the wind was red
Like a summer wine
When the wind was red
Like your lips on mine
It caressed my face
And it tossed my hair
You were there
Then came the fall
And all of love came tumbling
Stumbling down
Like leaves that lost
to frost and found
They were flying crying
In a brown wind dying
But the winter's come
And we both should know
That the wind is white
Like the swirling snow
And we'll never see
All the wonderful things
to be seen
When the wind is green
