Listening to the wind,
D
Trying to hear the voice of a distant friend.
A
Wishing you and I were close again,
D
Listening to the wind.
C G
Listening to the breeze,
D
As it whispers through the poplar trees.
A
Do you think I mean way back then,
D
Do you listen to the wind.
G
Listen to the night,
D
Wishing we could hold and squeeze each other tight.
A
I can almost hear the stars so bright,
D
Listening to the night.
C G
Listening to the sounds,
D
Of a highway through some distant town.
A
I can almost hear the pale moon light,
D
Do you listen to the night.
[Instrumental]
G
Listening to my mind,
D
Searching through my thoughts for the perfect time.
A
Using tricks and telepathy at times,
D
Do you listen to your mind.
C G
Listening to the breeze,
D
As it whispers through the poplar trees.
A
Wishing you and I were close again,
D
Just listening to the wind.
