The winds are blowing westerly
A picture of tranquility
As I stand here looking out from my front door
You left unexpectedly
On the first day of the new century
You couldn’t stand the silence anymore
1000 days in Tuscany
I tried to give my heart to thee
Now I look where you once walked before
Now the end of love is testing me
Loneliness takes the rest of me
The end of love
The end of love
I came to you when your song called me
Loving you so eagerly
Giving all my heart, all my soul
Our life became a tapestry
Of children, work and family
But nothing I could do would fill up that hole, in your heart
Your heart kept looking out to sea
In search of some unknown mystery
A destiny I could not control
And ,now the end of love is testing me
Loneliness takes the rest of me
The end of love
The end of love
And now the end of love is testing me
Loneliness takes the rest of me
The end of love
The end of love
The end of love
The end of love
The winds are blowing westerly
A picture of tranquility
As I stand here looking out from my front door
