Lyrics
Savannah Wind
Savannah Wind, Lord I feel you
Drifting soft and warm from the island of Amelia
I guess I?m lost forever in her memory
She said good-bye on Saint Simon Sea
I never thought I?d miss the smell of a pulp wood tree
Drifting down from Charleston on the evening breeze
Ships going out, ships coming in
I guess mine is gone forever not to return again Savannah Wind
North Georgia nights are cold. They ain?t home.
I need to hear the sea waves crashing, feel the ocean foam
I need to feel you again; you?re like a warm friend
Sweet Savannah Wind
Savannah Wind you haunt the trees
Dancing Spanish moss like ghosts in the evening breeze
I guess I thought it all would fade in slow degrees
But it?s as clear now as it was when you let it in
Savannah Wind
Music drifting through the shades of a summer night
And sea gulls dancing on the distant harbor light
I need to feel you again; you?re like a warm friend
Oh, Savannah Wind
Music drifting through the shades of a summer night
And sea gulls dancing on the distant harbor light
I need to feel you again; you?re like a warm friend
Sweet, Savannah Wind
I need to feel you again; you?re like a warm friend
Oh, Savannah Wind
Sweet, Savannah Wind
Just Another Fool
Loneliness moves in like the tide into the harbor
Can?t prepare my heart for the journey her memory will take me on
The sun says good-bye to the colors and the stars shine on the water
And I must face another lonely night alone
Just another lonely fool missing you in paradise
Anyone can see the loneliness in my eyes
I can leave the place we loved but not the memory of our life
And I?m just another lonely fool missing you in paradise
I must leave this room it?s closing in on me
May catch some music downtown or stroll along the sea
I can?t forget your kiss, your smile, or those tender eyes
So tonight I?ll be a fool missing you in paradise life
And I?m just another lonely fool missing you in paradise
Well I?m just another lonely fool missing you in paradise
And anyone can see the loneliness in my eyes
I can leave the place we loved but not the memory of our life
And I?m just another lonely fool missing you in paradise
