Rod Stewart - Mandolin Wind lyrics

(rod stewart)<br><br>When the rain came I thought you'd leave<br>'cause I knew how much you loved the sun<br>But you chose to stay, stay and keep me warm<br>Through the darkest nights I've ever known<br>If the mandolin wind couldn't change a thing<br>Then I know I love ya<br><br>Oh the snow fell without a break<br>Buffalo died in the frozen fields you know<br>Through the coldest winter in almost fourteen years<br>I couldn't believe you kept a smile<br>Now I can rest assured knowing that we've seen the worst<br>And I know I love ya<br><br>Oh I never was good with romantic words<br>So the next few lines come really hard<br>Don't have much but what I've got is yours<br>Except of course my steel guitar<br>Ha, 'cause I know you don't play<br>But I'll teach you one day<br>Because I love ya<br><br>I recall the night we knelt and prayed<br>Noticing your face was thin and pale<br>I found it hard to hide my tears<br>I felt ashamed I felt I'd let you down<br>No mandolin wind couldn't change a thing<br>Couldn't change a thing no, no<br><br>The coldest winter in almost fourteen years<br>Could never, never change your mind<br><br>And I love ya<br>Yes indeed and I love ya<br>And I love ya<br>Lordy I love ya
