The Wind

(album: Alela Diane & Wild Divine - 2011)

Woman of the island, please send me light
Put it in an envelope, post it to L.A
'Cause I'm on the wind, I can't go back
I am a dream on the wind

The organ cried out in the night
A phantom song of notes in time
It is I, pounding out the chords
From the still, of the unknown

Cause I'm on the wind, I can't go back
I am a dream on a wind

Too late darling, it was too late
Too late mama, I've gone to the sky
How can we learn, learn to lose
How can we learn, learn to lose

Death is a hard act to follow, ooh
Death is a hard act to follow

Now I give grace to you and yours
From this bright new home of silver moon
Sweet sister, I am with you forever more

La, la la, la la, la, la
La, la la, la la, la, la
