When The Winds Blow Lyrics - Midge Ure

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
