Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I dream of you yet
With the wind and the rain in your hair
I held you tight
And you whispered "good night"
With the wind and the rain in your hair
That vision of you standing there
Oh, there in the mist
How you sighed when we kissed
With the wind and the rain in your hair
Now it will be my favorite memory
That vision of you standing there
Mm, there in the mist
How you sighed when we kissed
With the wind and the rain in your hair

Last night we met
On a previous evening, we encountered each other
And I dream of you yet
I still have desires to be with you in my dreams
With the wind and the rain in your hair
You appeared with wind-tousled hair and rain droplets in it
I held you tight
I embraced you firmly
And you whispered "good night"
You spoke softly and said good night
Now it will be my favorite memory
This moment will remain as my most cherished recollection
That vision of you standing there
The mental image of you being present at that moment
Oh, there in the mist
Oh, you were present in the fog
How you sighed when we kissed
The expression of relief you breathed out when we locked lips
With the wind and the rain in your hair
Your hair bearing wind and raindrops
Now it will be my favorite memory
This moment will remain as my most cherished recollection
That vision of you standing there
The mental image of you being present at that moment
Mm, there in the mist
Mm, you were there in the fog
How you sighed when we kissed
The expression of relief you breathed out when we locked lips
With the wind and the rain in your hair
Your hair bearing wind and raindrops

How do these great composers come up with such truly inspiring and great themes
Robert Milton
Its a gift.
Richard Close
And Beethoven was deaf ! Unbelievable.

The idea of genius is false. These themes come from HARD WORK over and over and the COURAGE TO CREATE (Rollo May's book). One goes into the Caos Zone of Creativity into the ZERO POINT (heaven, or the Great Behond) and brings back a SYNETHESIS that stops the war between a Thesis and an Antithesis here in Space-Time. It occurs in every human endeavor. Chuck Yeager the sound berrier, Nadia perfect 10, all Arts and Sciences. And you and I can FEEL IT even though we did nothing to make it. ENJOY.

Richard Close Beethoven could hear for most of his life. And I bet ya that even after he was deaf he could still hear the music inside his head.

Witchcraft; black magic; the dark arts

Anyone love how the motif for Tara's theme reappears in the finale? I think it's really amazing.
JOHN ROARTY
The portion where Dixie blends in is so sad and sentimental. 3:20. Beautifully scored.
Terry
Where Dr & Mrs Meade learn of their son's death?
Nicholas Stix
@JOHN ROARTY Yes! It's practically an artistic miracle, for it makes the decadent slavocracy sympathetic. Without passages like that and the main theme ("Tara"), the picture would have failed artistically.
