When I'm needin' a friend, I can talk to the wind God, I sure am glad that I found him Sometimes he seems to be the only one beside me Who can feel the Lord's breath all around him Winter's cold frozen ice or a bright autumn day On a warm summer night you can hear him say Cry for me, sigh for me, sad my breezes flow Stay for me, play for me, the song my friends will know My lonely wind must blow Mighty friend that is mine, can you give me a sign? He'll leave nothing but only to hear him I've seen the tall trees bend low, when his mighty winds blow And that's all the more reason I fear him Hear him call for the earth lonely, I can feel his great pain But on the eve of this day, I'll join in his refrain Cry for me, sigh for me, sad my breezes flow Stay for me, play for me, the song my friends will know My lonely wind must blow When I'm needing a friend, I'll remember the wind And my life here with the breezes of sorrow I'll be leaving him soon, 'cause I've got to make room For the lonely that will find him tomorrow On a black stormy night in your bosom, I'll cling And I'll know I've found love and the last song we'll sing Cry for me, sigh for me, sad my breezes flow Stay for me, play for me, the song my friends will know My lonely wind, my lonely wind My lonely wind must blow, yeah
