MAYBE IT‘S JUST THE WIND, song lyrics/Words by Joel Sattler
Whipporwill
Moon on the hill
Jupiter high in the sky
A belt of stars
The rising of Mars
The moment before a sigh…
Is that a ring around the Moon?
I hope winter’s not coming soon
I hear a whispering voice begin
Or maybe it’s just the wind
Maybe it’s just the wind
Away from the crowds
A night without clouds
An owl hooting on the plain
Hot breath of the night
Birds warn of dawn light
Fields full of silver grain
I stand at the door
And look out once more
And try to listen deep
I can make out no words
But the chattering birds
And the earth turning in its sleep
And I’m still alone
A faraway moan
Like the groan of an old hickory
An hour till dawn
The nights are so long
Does she do the same for me?
Whipporwill
Moon on the hill
Jupiter high in the sky
A belt of stars
The rising of Mars
The moment before a sigh…
Is that a ring around the Moon?
I hope winter’s not coming soon
I hear a whispering voice begin
Or maybe it’s just the wind
Maybe it’s just the wind
