(verse)
SOMETIMES I HEAR A WHISPER, SOMETIMES I HEAR A SCREAM.
SOMETIMES IT SEEMS SO REAL, BUT IT HAS TO BE A DREAM.
STILL IT'S IN MY HEART.
I CAN SMELL YOUR PERFUME, JUST A TRACE IN THE AIR.
FEEL YOUR BREATH UPON ME, IT'S LIKE YOU'RE STANDING THERE.
THOUGH WE?RE MILES APART.
(lift)
MY EYES ARE TELLING LIES TO ME, LIKE A MIRAGE, YOU'RE ALL I SEE.
(chorus)
THERE'S A WIND IN THE WIRES, SINGING OUT YOUR NAME.
LIKE A STORM IN THE DESERT, WIND CANNOT BE TAMED.
LONELY MILES AND DAYS ARE FUEL FOR THE FIRE.
THERE'S A WIND IN THE WIRES, I HEAR YOU CALLING ME.
FEELINGS OVERWHELMING, I NEED YOU HERE WITH ME,
CAUGHT IN THE UPDRAFT, SWIRLING EVER HIGHER
ON THE WIND IN THE WIRES.
(bridge)
PHONE'S NOT RINGING, BUT I HEAR YOU CALL.
BEING WITHOUT YOU, IS NOT LIVING AT ALL.
YOUR VOICE ECHOES OFF THE LONG DISTANCE LINES,
YOU KNOW I NEED YOU...AND I HEAR YOU...ALL OF THE TIME...
(solo)
THERE'S A WIND IN THE WIRES.
LONELY MILES AND DAYS ARE FUEL FOR THE FIRE.
CAUGHT IN THE UPDRAFT, SWIRLING EVER HIGHER.
(chorus)
THERE'S A WIND IN THE WIRES, SINGING OUT YOUR NAME.
LIKE A STORM IN THE DESERT, WIND CANNOT BE TAMED.
LONELY MILES AND DAYS ARE FUEL FOR THE FIRE.
THERE'S A WIND IN THE WIRES, I HEAR YOU CALLING ME.
FEELINGS OVERWHELMING, I NEED YOU HERE WITH ME,
CAUGHT IN THE UPDRAFT, SWIRLING EVER HIGHER,
ON THE WIND IN THE WIRES.
