I, I want to be one of those storms falling over the sea I want to rely, stars fiercer than Mars smile back at me Even as I speak, I hear the wind over those peaks And picture the timbers as they creak out in the storm Oh when the clouds swirl and all the world is waking with the wind And when the waves hurl themselves against the shore to win Oh how the heart leaps with the lightning and the drum Oh how the soul aches when the wind through green fields runs Half of me answers the storm in its wild sing-song
The other says here by the fire is where I belong Eyes wide may see so, much that they know where the winds flow Yet they know that they are a leaf blown, and fall where they're sown Oh when the clouds swirl and all the world is waken with the wind And when the waves hurl themselves against the shore to win Oh how the heart leaps with the lightning and the drum Oh how the soul aches when the wind through green fields runs
