[Verse 1]

When the night wind softly blows

Through my open window

Then I start to remember

The girl that brought me joy

Now the night wind softly blows

Sadness to tomorrow

Bringing tears to eyes so tired

Eyes I thought could cry no more


[Pre-Chorus]

If the day would only come

Then you might just appear

Even though you'd soon be gone

When I reached out my hand


[Chorus]

If I could see you

If only I could see you

To see if you are laughing or crying

When the night winds softly blow


[Verse 2]

In my dark and whispering room

Memories still bring me

A numbness to my feelings

Take my hand and brush my brow

In the warm and fevered dark

Heart was madly beating

My crazy thoughts are worrying

When the night winds softly blow


[Pre-Chorus]

If the day would only come

Then you might just appear

Even though you'd soon be gone

When I reached out my hand


[Chorus]

If I could see you

If only I could see you

To see if you are laughing or crying

When the night winds softly blow


[Pre-Chorus]

If the day would only come

Then you might just appear

Even though you'd soon be gone

When I reached out my hand


[Chorus]

If I could see you

If only I could see you

To see if you are laughing or crying

When the night winds softly blow
