Sounds In The Wind

Love what is it, what does it cost, who pays?

I hear the sound in the wind
It is the love lost to sin
Her arms hold him tight
While his wife cries this night

It leaves the soul run cold
The love that is bought and sold
A drink or two makes it all right
Neon sign burns to morning light

I hear the sound in the wind
It is where life begins
Only man never wins
When passion is the sin

The love is precious sent
Worth every dollar spent
Sound of beating hearts
That is how it starts

I hear the sound in the wind
Crying children born again
No answer to the claim
He or she who was the blame

Rough hands tend the task
Children afraid to ask
Daddy holds another’s flame
Mommys taking the midnight train

I hear the sound in the wind
It is the crying of little children
