A Thousand Winds

Hold your head up and don't you cry

When I'm called home and must leave

Don't want a sad occasion

I want a celebration

With my friends and loved ones around me

I want lots of stories I want lots of laughing

Happy music and toes tapping

So don't you be down

Just look around I'll be near

I'll be the sunshine in your morning

That warms your pretty face

That bluebird on your mailbox

And the soft autumn rain

I'll be those children in the winter

Making angels in the snow

I will be

A thousand winds that blow

I feel you breathing next to me

In the stillness of the night

I think how you've loved me

So long unconditionally

And what a lucky man am I

And when my time's up and I'm called to glory

I want to see you smiling as those trumpets sound before me

So don't be sad

Just look back and I'll be there

I'll be that rainbow on the water

You always loved to see

That hawk high on the branches

Of an old oak tree

I'll be that little boy with his mama

Who's scared and won't let go

I will be

A thousand winds that blow

And I'll be that kiss upon your forehead

When it comes your time to go

I will be a thousand winds that blow

I will be a thousand winds that blow
