Lyrics
WIND, HAIL and FLAME
Almost wasted and it?s only evening
She?s been gone too long to blame
I still feel the sting of her leaving
I?m still standing in the rain
Haven?t found anyone to love with passion
Giving my heart is
Never ever a game
I can only love
Someone I would follow
Through wind and hail and flame
If there are angels
They send to the lonely
You?re the one
They sent to me
I wish I could see you
I wish I could believe
But can?t give all my heart
So why should we start
Down a road that leads to only pain
I can only love
Someone I would follow
Through wind and hail and flame
I can only love
Someone I would follow
Through wind and hail and flame
