(Jean Ritchie)

I hear the soft wind sighing in every bush and tree
The sound of my heart crying when you are far from me
When we're apart my darling there's sorrow in the wind
When we're apart my darling sweet sorrow in the wind.

You leave me in the morning your footsteps die away
Though not a leaf is stirring I hear the wind all day
When we're apart my darling there's sorrow in the wind
When we're apart my darling sweet sorrow in the wind.

--- Instrumental ---

They say when love grows older it dies and fades away
Yet all our life together one ever brightening day
When we're apart my darling there's sorrow in the wind
When we're apart my darling sweet sorrow in the wind.

When we're apart my darling there's sorrow in the wind
When we're apart my darling sweet sorrow in the wind...
