[Verse 1]
Wild geese flyin' by
Callin' on the downwind as they go
No answer they send
And springtime has too many miles to flow
[Chorus]
The lone black pine
Hillsides all covered in snow
Why does the wind
Say you ain't comin' back anymore?
[Verse 2]
Was there a time
When my dreams were not always of you?
The days ain't so bad
But each night takes so long passin' through
[Chorus]
Down by the stream
Fresh otter tracks in the snow
Why does the wind
Say you ain't comin' back anymore?
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
I've got a mind
Just to ramble this whole country 'round
With the hills turnin' green
And the frost boilin' out from the ground
[Chorus]
Drive through the miles
A country I've never seen before
Now that the wind
Says you ain't comin' back anymore
