Wow Preston, what a nice surprise today! Two breathtaking Rob's songs having both some precise windy quotes. I really liked them. As we all know your son is a really accomplished songwriter. Thanks folk for posting them and for taking part on this windy journey. The next exciting one will be about Ships, boats, and so on, I hope you'll do, too
You're welcome, Charly
Is it a kind of a shadow Reaching into the night Wandering over the hills unseen Oh is it a dream? There's a high wind in the trees A cold sound in the air And nobody ever knows where you go And where do you start? Oh into the dark

As Charly concurred, these threads wouldn't be ever laid in the grave, so let's go on posting windy songs .
Frank Zappa - Village of the Sun
Goin' back home To the Village of the Sun Out in back of Palmdale Where the turkey farmers run, I done Made up my mind And I know I'm gonna go to Sun Village, good God I hope the Wind don't blow

Heathaze
No cloud, a sleepy calm, Sunbaked earth that's cooled by gentle breeze, And trees with rustling leaves, Only endless days without a care, Nothing must be done.
Silent as a day can be, Far-off sounds of others on their chosen run As they do all those things they feel give life some meaning, Even if they're dull.
It's time to stop this dreaming, must rejoin the real world As revealed by orange lights and a smoky atmosphere.
The trees and I are shaken by the same wind but whereas The trees will lose their withered leaves, I just can't seem to let them loose. And they can't refresh me those hot winds of the south. Oh I feel like an alien, a stranger in an alien place.
Now the light is fading fast, Chances slip away, a time will come to pass When there'll be none, Then addicted to a perfumed poison, Betrayed by its aftertaste, Oh we shall lose the wonder and find nothing in return. Many are the substitutes but they're powerless on their own.
Beware the fisherman who's casting out his line Into a dried up river bed, But don't try to tell him 'cos he won't believe you. Throw some bread to the ducks instead, it's easier that way. I feel like an alien, a stranger in an alien place.
The trees and I are shaken by the same wind but whereas The trees will lose their withered leaves, I just can't seem to let them loose. And they can't refresh me those hot winds of the south. I feel like an alien, a stranger in an alien place.

THANKS TO ALL CONTRIBUTORS
The game isn't over yet!!!!
way across the country where the hillside mountain glide the dynamo of your smile caressed the barefoot virgin child to wander past your window with a lantern lit you held it in the doorway and you cast against the pointed island breeze
Great Genesis' song from an album I've got, excellent Charlie, The subject for April is gettin' hard for me to choose. Hope someone soon cast a great one.

Yes(other dinosaurs ) - Roundabout
Along the drifting cloud the eagle searching down on the land Catching the swirling wind the sailor sees the rim of the land The eagle's dancing wings create as weather spins out of hand

Today the wind was quite strong but this setback didn't avoid John & me geetin' a happy bike outing
The pistols are popping and the power is down I'd like to try something but I'm so far from town The sun keeps shining and the North Wind keeps picking up speed Gonna forget about myself for a while, gonna go out and see what others need

A timeless and forgotten place, The moon and sun in endless chase. Each in quiet surrender, While the other reigns the sky... The midnight hour begins to laugh, A summer evening's epitaph. The winds are getting crazy, As the storm begins to rise... As the storm begins to rise...

Rob sings 'Whisked away on an untimely January breeze'
in I am Glad : Robert Lloyd
and ( that our paths dared to meet)
from Home Truths
our paths dared to meet started life as an alternate version of I am glad but these two tunes eventually opened and closed his Home Truths release. Hope you enjoy

In Dreams : Robert Lloyd Davies
Take a basket of goodnight kisses Drop them off at the Eiffel Tower Then you’ll know the full extent of your power I will take a handful of farewell teardrops Scatter them across Hampstead heath Maybe then we will find something underneath
And I will show you What a pleasure it has been I have no regrets And you are still Dancing in my dreams Let the wind wrap around your body Through the cloth of your vintage scarf
Maybe then you’ll see how unique you are Let the sun travel through your fingers Or sit and read in your favourite chair If you want a part of me can be there
Be there to tell you What a pleasure it has been
I have no regrets And you are still Dancing in my dreams
I would like to tell you What a pleasure it has been I have no regrets And you are still
I have no regrets And you are still I am proud to say That you are still Dancing in my dreams

Richard Thompson - Outside Of The Inside - Live
There's a message on the wind Calling me to glory somewhere There are signs too deep for the dumb Like perfume in the air And when I get to Heaven I won't realize that I'm there

I am the centre of this universe The wind of time is blowing through me And it's all moving relative to me, It's all a figment of my mind In a world that I've designed I'm charged with cosmic energy Has the world gone mad or is it me? I am the creator of this universe And all that it was meant to be So that we might learn to see This foolishness that lives in us And stupidity that we must suss How to banish from our minds If you call this living I must be blind.

Baby Jane, what a fool I've been I let you go, I cast my fate to the four winds Baby Jane, can you forgive me now And take away this heart of pain That I'm living girl
I attended a Dr. Feelgood show in 1979 in my town, and also Kevin Ayers played that night. It's unlikely I would be able to forget that magical soirée

Notice the remarkable flute playing on this song
Well my baby's gone, so's summer And it brings on a cool night breeze And I wish we could go walking By the river, by the shady trees By the river with the shady trees
If you ever get to hear the version of this from the Dylan album Hard Rain, do it!! I doubt you'll ever hear a song sung with more anger or passion. Just amazing.
