"Four Strong Winds" lyrics
"Four Strong Winds"
(originally by Ian & Sylvia)
Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don't change
Come what may
But our good times are all gone
And I'm bound for moving on
I'll look for you, if I'm ever back this way
Guess I'll go out to Alberta
Where there's good there in the fall
Got some friends that I can go to working for
And I wish you'd change your mind
If I asked you one more time
But we've been through that a hundred times or more
Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don't change
Come what may
But our good times are all gone
And I'm bound for moving on
I'll look for you, if I'm ever back this way
If I get there before the snow flies
And if things are looking good
You could meet me, if I send you down the fare
But by then it would be winter
Not too much for you to do
And those winds. They sure blow cold away out there
Four strong winds that blow lonely
Seven seas that run high
All those things that don't change
Come what may
But our good times are all gone
And I'm bound for moving on
I'll look for you, if I'm ever back this way

Stephen Stills - "Johnny's Garden" There's a place
I can get to
Where I'm safe
From the city blues
And its green

Only trouble was

And I'll do anything
I got to do
Cut my hair and
Shine my shoes And keep...

Arrows and pins and a rainbow of threads
Like hope on a string, sewn into the linings
For the courage to face the unknown ahead

I'll see you when the kids have gone to school
