Wind And Window Flower Lyrics

Allright let's try it

Lovers, forget your love, And list to the love of these

She a window flower And he a winter breeze

When the frosty window veil Was melted down at noon

And the caged yellow bird Hung over her in tune

He marked her through the pane, He could not help but mark

And only passed her by To come again at dark

He was a winter wind, Concerned with ice and snow

Dead weeds and unmated birds, And little of love could know

But he sighed upon the sill, He gave the sash a shake

As witness all within Who lay that night awake

Perchance he half prevailed To win her for the flight

From the firelit looking-glass And warm stove-window light

But the flower leaned aside And thought of naught to say

And the morning found the breeze A hundred miles away

A hundred miles away, my dear A hundred miles away

And the morning found the breeze A hundred miles away

A hundred miles away, my dear A hundred miles away

And the morning found the breeze A hundred miles away

A hundred miles away
