What colour is the wind ? where does it come from where does it go Is it a black as the darkest night or as white as ****** snow As it rises and falls to whom does it call As over continents oceans and deserts it squalls What colour is the wind In the Valleys so deep or the mountains so high From the cliffs and the beaches rising into the sky As a storm or a sea breeze drifting along Driving clouds over sunsets when the day is almost done What colour is the wind? As it races by your window Rattling shutters and around your house blows When filling the sails of ships on the seas Or chilling the poles in a permanent freeze What colour is the wind? I don't really know if you do please tell me Is it blue - is it yellow Maybe green or bright red Or a shade in between No one can tell for the colour of the wind Has never been seen

What colour is the wind
What colour is the wind ? where does it come from where does it go Is it a black as the darkest night or as white as ****** snow As it rises and falls to whom does it call As over continents oceans and deserts it squalls What colour is the wind In the Valleys so deep or the mountains so high From the cliffs and the beaches rising into the sky As a storm or a sea breeze drifting along Driving clouds over sunsets when the day is almost done What colour is the wind? As it races by your window Rattling shutters and around your house blows When filling the sails of ships on the seas Or chilling the poles in a permanent freeze What colour is the wind? I don't really know if you do please tell me Is it blue - is it yellow Maybe green or bright red Or a shade in between No one can tell for the colour of the wind Has never been seen
The phrase "What colour is the wind" has been rattling around in my head for quite a few years. I intend..should I ever get around to it, to write a song with that title.
