Intro verse 1 I will share with you the warmth of a summer evening's breeze A loving word thats whispered soft and low But the way of life I've chosen can be led by only one I'll tell this to you now so you will know Chorus Cause there's a whistle on the river, and its calling with a tune That's buried deep inside of me, and I'll be leaving soon There's a rhythm from the wheels, and the wings are on my heels And the winds are singing perfect harmony verse 2 I'm like any man whose in his prime, and dreams of things undone And must be free to wander where he may Can't be burdened by a love or a task to tie me down Please believe me when I say I cannot stay Chorus Cause there's a whistle on the river, and its calling with a tune That's buried deep inside of me, and I'll be leaving soon There's a rhythm from the wheels, and the wings are on my heels And the winds are singing perfect harmony Bridge verse 3 I know its hard to realize when I must leave again But your rival is not something you can see Its not easy to explain, my attempt would be in vain But perhaps you'll understand that it must be Chorus Cause there's a whistle on the river, and its calling with a tune That's buried deep inside of me, and I'll be leaving soon There's a rhythm from the wheels, and the wings are on my heels And the winds are singing perfect harmony Outro And the winds are singing perfect harmony
