[Verse 1]
Love me, love me, love me, love me, say you do
Let me fly away with you

[Refrain]
For my love is like the wind
And wild is the wind
Wild is the wind

[Verse 2]
Give me more than one cares
Satisfy this hungriness

[Refrain]
Let the wind blow through your hair
For wild is the wind, wild is the wind

[Chorus]
You touch me
I hear the sound of mandolins
You kiss me
With your kiss my life begins
Oh, you're spring to me, all things to me
Don't you know you're life itself?

[Verse 3]
Like the leaf clings to the tree
Oh my darling cling to me, oh

[Refrain]
For we're like creatures in the wind
And wild is the wind, wild is the wind

[Chorus]
You kiss me and
With your kiss my life begins
You're spring to me, all things to me
Don't you know you're life itself?

[Verse 3]
Like the leaf clings to the tree
Oh my darling, cling to me

[Refrain]
For we're like creatures in the wind
And wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
Wild is the wind
Oh wild is the wind
Wild is the wind

[Outro]
Oh, thank you so much

David Bowie (1947 – 2016) was a British musician, and one of the most iconic rock stars with a widely diverse career where he frequently changed his appearance and musical style, resulting in an acclaimed discography comparable to other stalwarts such as The Beatles and Bob Dylan. Born David Robert Jones, Bowie quickly renamed himself to prevent confusion with The Monkees singer Davy Jones. Enduring many early missteps, he rose to prominence when his most famous song, “Space Oddity,” was played during the coverage of the Apollo 11 moon landing.

Despite this early breakthrough, Bowie remained a cult figure for several years. Even the release of Hunky Dory, his first great album, went largely unnoticed. Bowie only lodged himself firmly in the public consciousness when he announced his bisexuality and created Ziggy Stardust in early 1972. A Martian who combined the debauchery of Iggy Pop with the artistry of Lou Reed, Ziggy was the main character in Bowie’s breakthrough album, and his public persona for eighteen months.

Bowie used his new-found popularity to move to America, and dabble with new musical directions and cocaine. Diamond Dogs and Young Americans continue to divide critics, but Station To Station found Bowie at a new creative peak, despite escalating drug use and related health issues.
