TRANSCRIBER'S NOTE: A
different format is used here. Because most lyrics
are sung by all four of the Four Aces, said
lyrics are not annotated. Those sung
only by lead Al Alberts are shown in {brackets} As usual,
the choral backups are
in (parentheses).
(It is written on the wind)
(It is
written on the wind)
A faithless lover's kiss is written on the wind
A night of
stolen bliss is written on the wind
Just like the tide leaves
Our dreams we've calmly
thrown away
Now they've flown away
{Softly flown away}
The promises we made are
whispers in the breeze
They echo and they fade just like our memories
Though you are gone
from me
We never can really be apart
What's written on the wind
Is written in my
heart
Though you are gone from me
We never can really be apart
What's written
on the wind
Is written in my heart
