My Friend The Wind (Live Version) Lyrics
Demis Roussos
Lyrics
My friend the wind will come from the hills
When dawn will rise, he'll wake me again
My friend the wind will tell me a secret
He shares with me, he shares with me
(My friend the wind will come from the north)
(With words of love, she whispers for me)
(My friend the wind will tell me that she loves me)
(And me alone, and me alone)
I'll hear her voice and the words
That he brings from Heleni mou
Sweet as a kiss are the songs of Aghapi mou
Soft as the dew is the touch of Manoula mou
Ohohoh
We'll share a dream where I'm never away from Heleni mou
Blue are the days like the eyes of Aghapi mou
Far from the world will I live with Manoula mou
Ohohohoh
My friend the wind go back to the hills
And tell my love a day will soon come
Oh friendly wind you tell her a secret
You know so well, oh you know so well
(My friend the wind will come from the north)
(With words of love, and whispered for me)
(My friend the wind will say she loves me)
(And me alone, and me alone)
I'll hear her voice and the words
That he brings from Heleni mou
Sweet as a kiss are the songs of Aghapi mou
Soft as the dew is the touch of Manoula mou
Ohohoh
We'll share a dream where I'm never away from Heleni mou
Blue are the days like the eyes of Aghapi mou
Far from the world were I live with Manoula mou
Ohohoh
Lai lai lai ... Heleni mou
Lai lai lai ... Aghapi mou
Lai lai lai ... Manoula mou
Lai lai lai ... Heleni mou
Lai lai lai ... Aghapi mou
Lai lai lai ... Manoula mou
