What Color Is The Wind
By Charlie Landsborough
Capo 1
What colour is the wind, Daddy
Is it yellow, red or blue
When he s playing with my hair, Daddy
Does he do the same to you
When he s dying does his colour fade
Is a gentle breeze a lighter shade
Just like his friend the sea
The wind feels blue to me
-------
When the blackbird starts to sing, Daddy
Do the flowers hear him, too
When he s pouring out his heart, Daddy
Tell me, what do roses do
Do they cast their scent upon the air
And is fragrance just a rose in prayer
Giving thanks to God above
For the blackbird s song of love
Chorus:
Blow, wind, blow
Wild and free
My Daddy says
You re a lot like me
I know each colour
Its shape and size
I ve seen them all
With my Daddy s eyes
I know that grass is green, Daddy
I ve touched it with my toes
And snow is purest white, Daddy
I ve felt it with my nose
But my favourite colour has to be
The colour of your love for me
And Daddy, I ve been told
That love is always gold
Chorus
My Daddy says
You re a lot like me
What colour is the wind
