Lunch Break Video: Patrick Swayze’s “She’s Like the Wind” was a love song he wrote for his wife Lisa

The song She’s Like the Wind was part of the Dirty Dancing soundtrack and made it to near the top of the Billboard sales charts. Patrick Swayze not only sang the love song, but he wrote it (for his wife, Lisa Niemi).

Today seems like the perfect time to listen to it again.

Here are some of the lyrics:

She’s like the wind through my tree
She rides the night next to me
She leads me through moonlight
Only to burn me with the sun
She’s taken my heart
But she doesn’t know what she’s done

Feel her breath on my face
Her body close to me
Can’t look in her eyes
She’s out of my league
Just a fool to believe
I have anything she needs
She’s like the wind
