As I went a wa lking One mor ning in spri ng
I m et with some tr avelers On an old country lane
One was an o ld man The se cond a mai d
The t hird was a yo ung boy who smi led as he said
With the w ind in the wi llows The bir ds in the sky
There's a b right sun to wa rm us whereve r we lie. ..
We h ave bread and fi shes and a jug of red wine
To s hare on our jo urney with all ... of mankind .

So I a sked them to te ll me their nam es and their race
So I could reme mber each smi le on their face
"Our n ames, they mean no thing...They cha nge throughout time
So c ome sit besi de us and sha re in our wine "
With the w ind in the wi llows The bir ds in the sky
There's a b right sun to wa rm us whereve r we lie. ..
We h ave bread and fi shes and a jug of red wine
To s hare on our jo urney with all ... of mankind .

So I s at down besi de them With flo wers all around
We a te from a ma ntle Spread out on the grou nd
They t old me of pr ophets And peo ples and king s
And a ll of the on e god that kno ws everythin g
"We're t raveling to Gl aston Over Eng land's green lane s
To h ear of men's tr oubles To hea r of their pain s
We t ravel the wi de world Over lan d and the sea
To t ell all the pe ople How they can be free ..."
With the w ind in the wi llows The bir ds in the sky
There's a b right sun to wa rm us whereve r we lie. ..
We h ave bread and fi shes and a jug of red wine
To s hare on our jo urney with all ... of mankind .

So s adly I le ft them On that old country lane
For I knew that I' d never see them again
One was an o ld man The se cond a mai d
The t hird was a yo ung boy who smi led as he said ...
With the w ind in the wi llows The bir ds in the sky
There's a b right sun to wa rm us whereve r we lie. ..
We h ave bread and fi shes and a jug of red wine
To s hare on our jo urney with all of mankind .
With the w ind in the wi llows The bir ds in the sky
There's a b right sun to wa rm us whereve r we lie. ..
