 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

 To share on our journey with all... of mankind.
