Only The Wind

Only The Wind - Billy Dean

I remember as a child

On a dark stormy night

I heard the screendoor slam

And I was overcome with fright

So afraid that

Someone bad was trying to get in

And momma came to comfort me and said

It's only the wind and nothing more

Not the end of the world knockin' at the door

So close your eyes and dream again

Believe me it's only the wind

Everytime I've had to face

A bitter storm of life

Those words of comfort were

My shelter in the night

But tonight I don't believe

I'm able to pretend

The storm that you and

I are up against is only the wind

I can hear you downstairs

And you're just about to leave

There's nothing else that

I can do to keep you here with me no

And now the screen door's slammin'

And I'm frightened once again

What I wouldn't give if

I could be convinced

It's only the wind and nothing more

Not the end of the world walking out the door

I wish that I could dream again

Believin' it's only the wind

Oh nothing more not the end of my world

Walking out the door

I wish that I could dream again

Believin' it's only the wind

Only the wind
