What the Wind Said to Me
Follow me.
I know how to wake up the branches
tumble the clouds
stir up the forest
swirl around dust
make papers take flight
sing without a voice.
I know how to wake up the branches
tumble the clouds
stir up the forest
swirl around dust
make papers take flight
sing without a voice.
