For Rosie

Sad old bag that I am , I’m just been sorting through my CD collection ( only used an ipod once and that was at the dentist ). While doing it , I played random stuff . This song ,catch the wind’ by Donovan ,was Janes. I guess anyone under 45 won’t have heard it , but I urge you to find it and listen to it – it is really beautiful.

Lyrics
In the chilly hours and minutes
Of uncertainty
I want to be
In the warm hold of your loving mind

To feel you all around me
And to take your hand
Along the sand
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind

When sundown pales the sky
I want to hide a while
Behind your smile
And everywhere I’d look, your eyes I’d find

For me to love you now
Would be the sweetest thing
T’would make me sing
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind

Dee dee da da la da da da da da
Ya da da, da da, da da

When rain has hung the leaves with tears
I want you near
To kill my fears
To help me to leave all my blues behind

Standing in your heart
Is where I want to be
And long to be
Ah, but I may as well try and catch the wind
