Who will walk her tonight out in the heather
Who will laugh away the teardrop in her eye

She wants someone to love her forever
But every new love only brings another lie
Empty winds you hear her say, fickle winds they shift away
I don't need him in my life for I can fly

Who will walk her tonight out in the heather
Who will laugh away the teardrop in her eye
Who will smile with him when the photographs are yellow
And share his memories when they're flowers in the snow
Who will know his mind when all the words are hollow
Or help him face the things he never seems to know
It's the road you hear him say, it's the road and it's my way
I don't need her in my life now let me go
Who will smile with him when the photographs are yellow
And share his memories when they're flowers in the snow

Empty winds you hear her say, fickle winds they shift away
And I don't need him in my life for I can fly
Who will walk her tonight out in the heather
Who will laugh away the teardrop in her eye
It's the road you hear him say, it's the road and it's my way
I don't need her in my life now let me go
Who will smile with him when the photographs are yellow
And share his memories when they're flowers in the snow
Who will smile with him when the photographs are yellow
Share their memories when they're flowers in the snow
