1. |
Six miles high, speed was
steady |
| |
Wind from the north, weather fair |
| |
Cabin door screamed and blew open |
| |
She was pulled out into the air |
| |
|
2. |
Wind tore her clothes like a lover |
| |
Anxious to get her to bed |
| |
Shoes, stockings, jacket and white blouse |
| |
Her skirt pulled off over her head |
| |
|
| chorus |
Facing the stars. Facing the ground |
| |
Feeling the wind spin her around |
| |
Swan dive in space, graceful and small |
| |
Making love with the wind in Free
Fall |
| |

3. |
He twisted and turned her with whimsy |
| |
Taught her to dive and to pray |
| |
Learned every inch of her body |
| |
Then wantonly blew her away |
| |
|
| bridge |
instrumental |

4. |
Now the earth is a jealous mother |
| |
Who wants the wind for her own |
| |
She pulled the girl down to her bosom |
| |
With gravity, welcomed her home |
| |
|
5. |
Their brief affair ended abruptly |
| |
In a field on a cold and starlit night |
| |
But she rode the wind with a passion |
| |
That lasted the rest of her life |
| |
|
| chorus |
