King Crimson - I Talk To The Wind Lyrics






Said the straight man to the late man
"Where have you been?"
I've been here and I've been there
And I've been in between

I talk to the wind
My words are all carried away
I talk to the wind
The wind does not hear
The wind cannot hear

I'm on the outside looking inside
What do I see
Much confusion, disillusion
All around me

I talk to the wind
My words are all carried away
I talk to the wind
The wind does not hear
The wind cannot hear

You don't possess me
Don't impress me
Just upset my mind
Can't instruct me or conduct me
Just use up my time

I talk to the wind
My words are all carried away
I talk to the wind
The wind does not hear
The wind cannot hear

I talk to the wind
My words are all carried away
I talk to the wind
The wind does not hear
The wind cannot hear

The wind does not hear
The wind cannot hear
[repeat]

  2. V.... D....

    cover for this? - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DW3pZjmS3rg

  3. V.... D....

    OMG https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nvYoKCRdlPk

  4. V.... D....

    overcovered :-) but amazing, better to say above "KC"

  5. H.... F....

    Great cover version.

    Why don´t you start to release your works under your name, instead of using the moniker of your role model?

  6. F.... S....

    amazing sweet cover

  7. G.... ....

    thank you hirohiko araki for introducing me to such amazing music

  8. S.... ....

    If your girl is like this
    -Pink hair
    -Looks like a stripper
    -Is constantly talking about fate

    That ain't your girl, he's the Mafias Bo----

    And that's why I'll never have a girlfriend

    S.... ....

    Are you the straight man or the late man?

    S.... ....

    @Stand:「Catch the Rainbow」 Master:「Blackmore」 I am the lonely man

  9. M.... P....

    Kto z Polski

  10. m.... ....

    Amazing cover wow!!!

  11. O.... ....

    I honestly like Bastian's cover more than the original

  12. S.... T....

    I love the original, but this cover is really growing on me.

  13. S.... G....

    gorgeous chords

  14. R.... J....

    An underrated piece of English Melancholia from King Crimson. It is up there with Nick Drake's exquisitely
    wistful "River Man". The essence of loneliness - "I talk to the wind/The wind does not hear."


    This version is very impressive indeed. I shall request this track for my forthcoming funeral.

  15. M.... F....

    Horrible

    M.... F....

    Mon Frig like u

    [Verse 1]
    Said the straight man to the late man
    "Where have you been?"
    I've been here and I've been there
    And I've been in between

    [Chorus]
    I talk to the wind
    My words are all carried away
    I talk to the wind
    The wind does not hear, the wind cannot hear

    [Verse 2]
    I'm on the outside looking inside
    What do I see?
    Much confusion, disillusion
    All around me

    [Chorus]
    I talk to the wind
    My words are all carried away
    I talk to the wind
    The wind does not hear, the wind cannot hear

    [Verse 3]
    You don't possess me, don't impress me
    Just upset my mind
    Can't instruct me or conduct me
    Just use up my time


    [Chorus]
    I talk to the wind
    My words are all carried away
    I talk to the wind
    The wind does not hear, the wind cannot hear

    [Instrumental Interlude]

    [Chorus]
    I talk to the wind
    My words are all carried away
    I talk to the wind
    The wind does not hear, the wind cannot hear

    [Verse 1]
    Said the straight man to the late man
    "Where have you been?"
    I've been here and I've been there
    And I've been in between

    [Instrumental Outro]

  17. s.... ....

    They should have included flute like in original.

    s.... ....

    No mystic without a flute

  18. J.... ....

    Prefer the album version with the moody flutes.

  19. C.... l....

    I've fallen in love with this cover of it; even though I prefer the original, it is such a nice fresh breath from the studio recording~
    I thank whoever made this cover with unconditional respect, and send out much love for all the listeners of this peaceful music...

  20. M.... H....

    downloaded with thanks

  21. M.... A....

    Okay, i know this isnt the original, but its a master piece. Does anybody know who is from?

    M.... A....

    Bastian Schuhbeck

  22. M.... H....

    How can anyone not 'like' this?

  23. U.... F....

    The only sound I heard when I fell in love with my girl was this song in my head

  24. L.... B....

    Masterpiece

  25. b.... ....

    It’s not the original

    b.... ....

    It's a great cover tho

    b.... ....

    The original isn't the original either—there is an earlier version by Giles, Giles and Fripp.

    b.... ....

    bobsam55 yes a bit mellow from Original Version

  26. D.... ....

    This song is so beaut- don't you agree?
