The Wind In The Willows Song Lyrics [2]
The wind in the willows, it whispers my name
Through the rustling leaves, it calls me by fame
It's a song of the earth, a melody of peace
It's a gentle reminder, to let go and release
Chorus:
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's a symphony
A harmony of nature, a lullaby for me
It carries my worries, and takes them away
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's where I want to stay
Verse 2:
The swaying branches, dance to the beat
As the wind in the willows, plays a rhythm so sweet
It's a symphony of birds, and creatures of the land
A magical orchestra, conducted by nature's hand
Chorus:
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's a symphony
A harmony of nature, a lullaby for me
It carries my worries, and takes them away
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's where I want to stay
Bridge:
It's a world of wonder, a place of dreams
Where the wind in the willows, sings and gleams
And in this peaceful haven, I find my soul
As the wind in the willows, continues to roll
Chorus:
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's a symphony
A harmony of nature, a lullaby for me
It carries my worries, and takes them away
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's where I want to stay
Outro:
So when life gets too much, and I need to escape
I'll find solace in the wind, and the willows' embrace
For it's a place of magic, and a place of peace
The wind in the willows, a melody that will never cease.
The wind in the willows, it whispers my name
Through the rustling leaves, it calls me by fame
It's a song of the earth, a melody of peace
It's a gentle reminder, to let go and release
Chorus:
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's a symphony
A harmony of nature, a lullaby for me
It carries my worries, and takes them away
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's where I want to stay
Verse 2:
The swaying branches, dance to the beat
As the wind in the willows, plays a rhythm so sweet
It's a symphony of birds, and creatures of the land
A magical orchestra, conducted by nature's hand
Chorus:
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's a symphony
A harmony of nature, a lullaby for me
It carries my worries, and takes them away
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's where I want to stay
Bridge:
It's a world of wonder, a place of dreams
Where the wind in the willows, sings and gleams
And in this peaceful haven, I find my soul
As the wind in the willows, continues to roll
Chorus:
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's a symphony
A harmony of nature, a lullaby for me
It carries my worries, and takes them away
Oh, the wind in the willows, it's where I want to stay
Outro:
So when life gets too much, and I need to escape
I'll find solace in the wind, and the willows' embrace
For it's a place of magic, and a place of peace
The wind in the willows, a melody that will never cease.
