Restlessness

[good4somethingbum]

RestlessnessWhen the eagle casts a mighty shadowAs he leaves the comfort of his nestThen his wings are lifted by both wind andRestlessnessWhen I see my breath on morning breezesAnd the chill of Autumn fills my chestMy heart beats with rhythm that belongs toRestlessnesschorusRestlessness, restlessnessCos I wanna make my slow way westWhere waves reach for moonlight when they crestMore’s the pity if I live for something lessBut where I go I’ll never stayBecause my spirit must obeyIts restlessnessWhen I lace my boots and bid her farewellAs she slips back into her silk dressShe knows love is strong but not as strong asRestlessnessAnd for ev’ry woman that I’ve been withI look back on such a lonely questEmpty mem’ries come from being filled withRestlessnessChorus When I wonder what’s beyond the starlightThen my faith knows what my eyes must guessO but what’s a rambler’s rich reward forRestlessnessMaybe heaven’s one more wide horizonWhere a lonesome drifter’s fin’lly blessedHis reward is roamin’ star to star inRestlessnessChorus…©2007 Robert George
