 The  coolness of the  riverbank, and the  whispering of the  reeds
Daybreak  is not  so very far  away
 Enchanted and spellbound,  in the silence  they lingered
 And rowed the boat as the light  grew steadily strong
 And the birds  were silent,  as they listened for  the heavenly music
And  the river played  the song
 The wind in the willows  and the piper  at the gates of dawn
 The wind in the willows  and the piper  at the gates of dawn
The  song dream happened  and the cloven hoofed piper
Played  in that holy ground  where they felt the awe and wonder
 And they all  were unafraid  of the great  god Pan
 And the wind in the willows and the piper at the gates of dawn
 The wind in the willows and the piper at the gates of dawn
 When the vision vanished  (they)  heard a choir of birds singing
 In the heavenly silence  between the trance and the reeds
 And they stood  upon the lawn  and listened  to the silence
 Of the wind in the willows and the piper at the gates of dawn
 The wind in the willows and the piper at the gates of dawn
 The wind in the willows and the piper at the gates of dawn
 It's the wind in the willows and the piper at the gates of dawn
 The wind in the willows and the piper at the gates of dawn
 The wind in the willows and the piper at the gates of dawn
