Fire wind, oh desert wind
A-she was born in a high desert breeze
And wind her way
Through canyon ways
A-from the desert to the silvery sea
In every direction
I see the perfection
A-see the San Gabriel Mountain scene
Santa Ana winds blow gently 'cross our minds (mi-i-i-i-ind) (winds keep blowin')
A-Santa Ana winds blow gently 'cross my mind (mi-i-i-i-ind) (winds keep blowin')
Oh, fill my sails
Oh, desert wind
And hold the waves high for me
Then I will come
And test my skills
Where the Santa Ana winds blow free
In waves of elation
My part of creation
Becoming one with the boundless sea
Santa Ana winds blow gently 'cross my mind (mi-i-i-i-ind) (winds keep blowin')
A-Santa Ana winds blow gently 'cross my mind (mi-i-i-i-ind) (winds keep blowin')
[The instrumental break here]
I am the wind
Oh, desert wind
On my pilgrimage to the sea
I will prevail
I will not fail
To breathe life into humanity
My song is creation
And rejuvenation
Whispering the wisdom and its purity
Santa Ana winds blow gently 'cross my mind (mi-i-i-i-ind) (winds keep blowin')
Santa Ana winds blow gently 'cross my mind (mi-i-i-i-ind) (winds keep blowin')
Yeah, Santa Ana winds blowin' gently 'cross my mind (mi-i-ind) (winds keep blowin')
