Ill Wind That Blows Lyrics

It's an ill wind that blows

And stops the flame from burning

It's a crooked stream that flows

When the mem'ries come returning

And the promises all spurning

Everyone is learning

It's an ill wind that blows

It's an ill wind that blows

When the fire begins to smoulder

It's a crooked stream that flows

And the water's running colder

And the sand has turned to boulder

Everyone's grown older

And it blows away the smile from the sun

And it blows so hard it touch's the heart

Of each and everyone

It's an ill wind that blows

When the world is meditating

it's a wise man who knows

The best road to be a taking

When war is in the making

And everyone is shaking

And it's an Ill wind that blows
