Kiss Me With The Wind
Brenda Russell Lyrics
It's always said there's someone
Waiting for you
I thought that it would never be
Someone really watchin' over me
But now I feel a breeze
Kiss me with the wind
Touch me with the sky
Hold me in the darkness
Wake me in the light
I'm so very shy
Kiss me with the wind
Touch me with the sky
Sometimes I worry
I'll be looking for you
But you keep moving off the line
I can never see you right behind
With me all the time
Kiss me with the wind
Touch me with the sky
Hold me in the darkness
Wake me in the light
You're so very close
I'm so very shy
Kiss me with the wind
Touch me with the sky
I never felt this way before
I never needed any more
You're so very close
I'm so very shy
Kiss me with the wind
Touch me with the sky

Wao! Typical 90's rytham which has lost somewhere since yelling and screaming has taken over the beautiful music we used to create and listen.
80's and 90's songs have no comparison and she has sung this so beautifully one can listen and watch over and over again. Thanks for posting

This should have been as big a hit as Madonna's "Vogue", since they were written around the exact same time. Why didn't I hear this on the radio -- then and now?

It got some Canadian FM Adult radio play, in the era when Madonna and Phil Collins ruled and Grunge was taking over.
