Midge Ure - When The Winds Blow

Common people living quietly in confusion Information's giving quite a grand illusion Hearts are beating, keeping time To meet a deadline Faces pressed against the pane To watch a headline When the winds blow I will call When the winds blow I will call When the winds blow I will call you We will stand and watch them fall All our ships are sailing blindly Under one sun Sending signals, calling kindly Reaching no-one Echoes sound the shifting air Of empires calling Hold my hand, the shifting sand Of empires falling When the winds blow I will call When the winds blow I will call When the winds blow I will call you We will stand and watch them fall Oh we'll stand and watch them fall We confided, then decided not to follow All the slogans, taunts and charges Sound so hollow With open minds across the border We have waited But keeping place within this race is complicated When the winds blow I will call When the winds blow I will call When the winds blow I will call you We will stand and watch them When the winds blow I will call When the winds blow I will call When the winds blow I will call you We will stand and watch them fall Oh we'll stand and watch them fall
