Southern Winds lyrics

Dreamin by the fire
at the Gulf of Mexico
Somebody s playin a lovesong
With a six string homesick tone

Memories of summer
the first time we made love
And a promise left unspoken
I saw in a shooting star

The Southern wind was blowin
as if he wants to say
The words I whispered in my hear
only yesterday

You re my only one - my risin sun
You re the air I wanna breathe
Girl you re everything I need
My shining star - that s what you are
And as long my heart will beat
You ll be everything - everything I need

The fire is still burning
I was humming to the song
Couldn t think of all the words
so I made them up my own

Like a secret door that opens
these words just set me free
And the promise left unspoken
was the owner of the key

Oh Southern wind keep blowin
please carry me back home
There s somebody who is waiting
and I ve gotta let her know

You re my only one - my risin sun
You re the air I wanna breathe
Girl you re everything I need
My shining star - that s what you are
And as long my heart will beat
You ll be everything - everything I need

And when Southern Winds are blowin
they might even bring some rain
But the promise left unspoken
will always be the same
