Four Strong Winds

John Denver · Forever John [1998]

Four strong winds that blow lonely, seven seas that run high

All these things that don't change come what may

Now our good times are all gone, and I'm bound for moving on

I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way



Guess I'll go out to Alberta, weather's good there in the fall

Got some friends that I can go to working for

Still I wish you'd change your mind, if I asked you one more time

But we've been through that a hundred times or more



Four strong winds that blow lonely, seven seas that run high

All those things that don't change come what may

Now our good times are all gone, and I'm bound for moving on

I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way



If I get there before the snow flies, and if things are going good

You could meet me if I sent you down the fare

But by then it would be winter, nothing much for you to do

And the wind sure blows cold way out there



Four strong winds that blow lonely, seven seas that run high

All those things that don't change come what may

Now our good times are all gone, and I'm bound for moving on

I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way

Yes our good times are all gone, and I'm bound for moving on

But I'll look for you if I'm ever back this way
