Lyrics
[Intro]
You know I love you, baby, but the wind's gonna blow
The wind's gonna blow, the wind's gonna blow
You know I love you, baby, but the wind's gonna blow
When it does, that's the time I gotta go
[Verse 1]
I was rolling into Illinois, the snow was coming down
When the world's asleep, the silence gets so loud
That's when thoughts of you come blowing through the February wind
I hope you wait for me in April once the springtime comes again
[Verse 2]
It's the yellow lines, the mile markers, cities on repeat
All this grey and white just numbs the scenery
And I feel so down and out, but I'm gonna get back up and in
And if this highway gives me up, I'm never leaving you again
[Chorus]
Well, you know I love you, baby, but the wind's gonna blow
The wind's gonna blow, the wind's gonna blow
You know I love you, baby, but the wind's gonna blow
When it does, that's the time I gotta go
[Verse 3]
Every night, a telephone is sitting next to me
Through these empty hotel walls, they used to ring
In these beds, I sleep alone, and this damn hotel ain't a home
And those hazel eyes can't sparkle when you're crying on the phone
[Bridge]
And the heater's are always broken
I've never been so cold
[Chorus]
Well, you know I love you, baby, but the wind's gonna blow
The wind's gonna blow, the wind's gonna blow
You know I love you, baby, but the wind's gonna blow
When it does, that's the time I gotta go
[Bridge]
I'm sick of being gone, can I come back home?
I'm sick of being gone, can I come back home?
[Chorus]
Yeah, you know I love you, baby, but the wind's gonna blow
The wind's gonna blow, the wind's gonna blow
You know I love you, baby, but the wind's gonna blow
When it does, that's the time I gotta go
Well, you know I love you, baby, but the wind's gonna blow
The wind's gonna blow, the wind's gonna blow
You know I love you, baby, but the wind's gonna blow
When it does, that's the time I gotta go
