And so I leave
On cruel winds
Squalling

Like a dead leaf
Falling.
On cruel winds
Squalling
And gusting me
Like a dead leaf

Quotes for: wind
Absence diminishes mediocre passions and increases great ones, as the wind extinguishes candles and fans fires.
Since I grew tired of the chase
And search, I learned to find;
And since the wind blows in my face,
I sail with every wind.
And search, I learned to find;
And since the wind blows in my face,
I sail with every wind.
