Southern Winds Lyrics - Bonfire

Dreamin' by the fire 

at the Gulf of Mexico 

Somebody's playin' a lovesong 

With a six string homesick tone 

Memories of summer 

the first time we made love 

And a promise left unspoken 

I saw in a shooting star 

The Southern wind was blowin' 

as if he wants to say 

The words I whispered in my heart 

only yesterday

You're my only one - my risin' sun 

You're the air I wanna breathe 

Girl you're everything I need 

My shining star - that's what you are 

And as long my heart will beat 

You'll be everything - everything I need 

The fire is still burning 

I was humming to the song 

Couldn't think of all the words 

so I made them up my own 

Like a secret door that opens 

these words just set me free 

And the promise left unspoken 

was the owner of the key 

Oh Southern wind keep blowin' 

please carry me back home 

There's somebody who is waiting 

and I've gotta let her know

You're my only one - my risin' sun 

You're the air I wanna breathe 

Girl you're everything I need 

My shining star - that's what you are 

And as long my heart will beat 

You'll be everything - everything I need 

And when Southern Winds are blowin' 

they might even bring some rain 

But the promise left unspoken 

will always be the same
