Here are the lyrics of Sweet Sorrow in the Wind, as printed in the liner notes to the Jean Ritchie album, None But One:

SWEET SORROW IN THE WIND
(Jean Ritchie)

I hear the soft wind sighing
In ev'ry bush and tree.
The sound of my heart crying
When you're away from me.

You leave me in the morning,
Your footsteps die away.
Though not a leaf is stirring
I hear the wind all day.
CHORUS

They say when love grows older
It dies and fades away;
Yet all our life together –
One ever-brightening day.
CHORUS (TWICE)
