I Turned My Face Into The Wind

verse 1 I wandered far onto the lonely moors Sparse coarse tufts of grass reached out to trip me And above my head the leaden clouds hung low As I turned my face into the wind verse 2 I huddled close against a tumbling wall Wrapped in a cloak, to shield me from the bitter cold The solitude weighed heavy on my mind As I turned my face into the wind Bridge The mist rolled down across the countryside I thought I heard the coastal sirens sound As I turned my face into the wind Instrumental verse 3 I tried to peer into the deepening gloom To glimpse a lighted window in the distance But just too far to penetrate the rain AS I turned my face into the wind verse 4 Yet somehow I sensed her presence near And tufts of sheep's-wool hanging from a gorse bush Were as though her hands were beckoning me home As I turned my face into the wind
