SONGS AND POEM AND SERMONS

Music by the Scorpions Great Clips by Cameron Moore and Matt Struck. The 4th track and 3rd single of Scorpions‘ 1990 album Crazy World. Written by vocalist Klaus Meine, “Wind of Change” is a power ballad about the various social and political changes that were happening in Eastern Europe at the time, especially in Moscow, Russia where the band got their inspiration to write the song after performing in a large festival there for the first time and noticed just how big they were there. It was eventually used as the anthem for hope after the fall of the Soviet Communist regime, the Berlin Wall, and by extension the end of the Cold War. Lyrics: I follow the Moskva Down to Gorky Park Listening to the wind of change An August summer night Soldiers passing by Listening to the wind of change [Verse 2] The world is closing in And did you ever think That we could be so close, like brothers? The future's in the air I can feel it everywhere Blowing with the wind of change [Chorus] Take me to the magic of the moment On a glory night Where the children of tomorrow dream away (Dream away) In the wind of change Mmm [Verse 3] Walking down the street And distant memories Are buried in the past forever I follow the Moskva And down to Gorky Park Listening to the wind of change [Chorus] Take me (Take me) to the magic of the moment On a glory night (A glory night) Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams (Share their dreams) With you and me (With you and me) Take me (Take me) to the magic of the moment On a glory night (A glory night) Where the children of tomorrow dream away (Dream away) In the wind of change (The wind of change)
