Listening to the Wind That Blows

Lyrics

There's a girl as she lay sleeping
 Sleeping in her sweet repose
 I'm her broken-hearted sweetheart
 Listening to that wind that blows
 When my good friends gather 'round me
 Where my graveyard flowers grow
 In my grave I'll be there sleeping
 Listening to that wind that blows
 Blow wind, blow long, low and lonesome
 Blow wind, blow where no heart knows
 I'm your lonesome hearted listener
 Listening to that lonesome wind that blows
 ♪
 On these ocean sands I've wandered
 Where those whitecap breakers roll
 I walked along the beach at midnight
 Listening to that wind that blows
 In this great and crowded city
 Where the silver dollar flows
 Many is the broken-hearted sweetheart
 Listening to that wind that blows
 Blow wind, blow long, low and lonesome
 Blow wind, blow where no heart knows
 I'm your lonesome hearted listener
 Listening to that lonesome wind that blows
 ♪
 I dreamt last night, we laid together
 Arm in arm, we took a stroll
 I woke up and the sky was cloudy
 Listening to that wind that blows
 Has it come your time to leave me?
 Has it come your time to go?
 Always, dear, I'll be here waiting
 Listening to that wind that blows
 Blow wind, blow long, low and lonesome
 Blow wind, blow where no heart knows
 I'm your lonesome hearted listener
 Listening to that lonesome wind that blows
