As I went a walking One morning in spring
                                       
I met with some travelers On an old country lane
                             
One was an old man The second a maid
                                      
The third was a young boy who smiled as he said

                                           
With the wind in the willows The birds in the sky
                                        
There's a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie...
                                       
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine
                                         |   |   |   | 
To share on our journey with all... of mankind.

                                              
So I asked them to tell me their names and their race
                                   
So I could remember each smile on their face
                                                    
"Our names, they mean nothing...They change throughout time
                                  
So come sit beside us and share in our wine"

                                           
With the wind in the willows The birds in the sky
                                        
There's a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie...
                                       
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine
                                         |   |   |   | 
To share on our journey with all... of mankind.

                                          
So I sat down beside them With flowers all around
                                  
We ate from a mantle Spread out on the ground
                                      
They told me of prophets And peoples and kings
                                  
And all of the one god that knows everything

                                              
"We're traveling to Glaston Over England's green lanes
                                      
To hear of men's troubles To hear of their pains
                                        
We travel the wide world Over land and the sea
                                  
To tell all the people How they can be free..."

                                           
With the wind in the willows The birds in the sky
                                        
There's a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie...
                                       
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine
                                         |   |   |   | 
To share on our journey with all... of mankind.

                                      
So sadly I left them On that old country lane
                                
For I knew that I'd never see them again
                             
One was an old man The second a maid
                                      
The third was a young boy who smiled as he said...

                                           
With the wind in the willows The birds in the sky
                                        
There's a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie...
                                       
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine
                                       
To share on our journey with all of mankind.

                                           
With the wind in the willows The birds in the sky
                                        
There's a bright sun to warm us wherever we lie...
                                       
We have bread and fishes and a jug of red wine
