I Don't Blame the Wind (feat. Becca Stevens, Gisela João, Justin Stanton, Louis Cato & Michael League)

What have you done to me?
Love that time can never take away
Like wind returns to stems of trembling roses
Haunted by their fragrance when they sway

From the tallest peak upon a mountain
You plucked the perfect rose to offer me
But the lonely wind was bound to hold it
And take the flower far away from me 


But I don't blame the wind for longing to hold her
And see her open in the morning sun
And be there when the petals fall, loving her through it all
And know that all's been given when she's gone

Lover come back to me
And bring with you the blue that paints my sky
The hue that only you could tether to me
And haunts me every cloudless after-light


What I would give to live the night you told me
You'd walk beside me til the end
Just leave me with two arms so I can hold you
Every time you long to chase the wind

But I don't blame the wind for longing to hold you
And see you waking in the morning sun
And be there when the petals fall, loving you through it all
And know that all's been given when you've gone 


Lover come home
And bring me back the joy that lives at night
Of laughter that could shake the tallest mountains
And lips that kiss until the morning light

I scream into the wind that lured you from me
Cursing chance and destiny
But the wind looks silently upon me (silently upon me)
I lost you when I had you next to me


Who could blame me for longing to hold you now?
And see you waking in the morning sun
And be there when the petals fall, loving you through it all
And know that all's been given when you've gone
