CAPO ON 4th FRET Note: I know it is not excactly the same as on Mermaid Avenue III. Take it as a starting point... Intro / / / / * / * / / Verse    There’s a girl as she is sleeping    Sleeping in her sweet repose    I’m her broken-hearted sweetheart    Listening to that wind that blows When my good friends gather ’round me Where my graveyard flowers grow In my grave I’ll be there sleeping Listening to that wind that blows Chorus    Blow wind blow long low and lonesome    Blow wind blow where no heart knows I’m your lonesome-hearted listener Listening to that lonesome wind that blows / / / / * / * / / On those ocean sands I wandered Where those whitecap breakers roll I walked along the beach at midnight Listening to that wind that blows In this great and crowded city     Where the silver dollar flows         Many’s a broken-hearted sweetheart Listening to that wind that blows Chorus    Blow wind blow long low and lonesome    Blow wind blow where no heart knows I’m your lonesome-hearted listener Listening to that lonesome wind that blows / / / / * / * / / / / / / * / * / / I dreamt last night we lay together Arm in arm we took a stroll           I woke up and the sky was cloudy Listening to that wind that blows Has it come your time to leave me? Has it come your time to go? Always dear I’ll be here waiting Listening to that wind that blows Chorus    Blow wind blow long low and lonesome    Blow wind blow where no heart knows I’m your lonesome-hearted listener Listening to that lonesome wind that blows / / / / * / * / / / / / / * / * / / / / / / * / * / / / / / / * / * / /

La chanson évoque un amour perdu et la mélancolie qui en découle. Le narrateur, embrassé par la tristesse, imagine sa bien-aimée qui dort paisiblement, tandis qu'il se retrouve seul à écouter le vent, symbole de sa douleur. Il se remémore des moments passés, se sentant isolé dans une grande ville, entouré de souvenirs douloureux, et se questionne sur le départ inévitable de son amour. Au fil de la mélodie, le vent devient une présence constante, portant ses pensées et ses espoirs d’un futur ensemble, même si tout semble perdu. Cette ambiance de nostalgie se mêle à une certaine acceptation de la solitude.
