Waterboys, The - Lonesome Old Wind Lyrics






Though I try
Hard as I can to fly free
That lonesome old wind keeps blowing me

I would stay
Where your loving warms me night and day
Close to thee
But that lonesome old wind keeps blowing me

You say this time
I must be out of my mind
Oh and I'm sure it's true
But that old wind is bending me
That old wind is sending me
And letting go is all I know how to do

Sometimes
There's a small boy in this head of mine
Whispers "let it be"
But that lonesome old wind keeps blowing me

    J. F. M. U should of seen them between 1986 to 1991 no other band were better live. Fact.

    L.... f....

    Jonathan Milner Ye that's when I seen them live 1989,Amazing 👌🏻

  17. T.... H....

    After a 30 year wait, I caught them in 2014 in Halifax, Nova Scotia. Magical, worth every second of that 3 decades.

    I'm just now getting to know Mike Scott's music -- I suspect it didn't get much airplay here in the States in the 80s and 90s.  Glad I found The Waterboys and Mike through the CBC's "Republic of Doyle," which used "Fisherman's Blues" in one episode.  Now I listen frequently, and bought the "Best of" album, which just goes through 1991.

    G.... W....

    they never did other then on college stations back in the 80s

    G.... W....

    What a treasure they are .. I feel blessed to have recently 'discovered' them .. oh where, oh where have I been?

    Na h-Alba gaisgeil ... .. Scotland The Brave ...

  20. D.... R....

    usual good improvisations of a happy melancholic nature...keeps me heading towards something spiritual :-)  and good

  21. p.... l....

    beautiful. i am amazed though that only some thousends know about them

    p.... l....

    I seriously doubt The Waterboys formed in 1963, when Mike Scott was 4.  1983, maybe.  Their first concert videos were made in 1984. Scott was performing in public about the time he turned 20.

    p.... l....

    @Gail Williams A simple typo. Of course I meant '83.

    p.... l....

    I was trying to imagine Mike, Steve and Anto with tiny child-sized instruments on stage under their mommies' watchful eyes.  :)

    p.... l....

    Yeah that would be just about size of it.

    p.... l....

    panos lazaris , i guess they are not for the American taste, but yeas, I came to know about them with fisherman's blues, i loved their music ever since, they are unique, Mike writes excellent tunes and lyrics.
