Wandering Soul

Restless eyes and concrete gray
Clouds like blankets on the day
Summer season's looking thin
One job finished then we're digging in
How long is long enough to stay
Don't bother to unpack today
This might be your siren song
Then again, the music's wrong ohh
Wandering soul
You got no place to call home
Just traveling on
Wandering soul
Now me I long to grow some roots
Below the surface of the soil
And let a tender place uncoil
Deep underground and reaching down
The constant landscape burns my eyes
The promise of a new surprise
The balance hanging in mid skies
That's alright for you
Wandering soul
You got no place to call home
Just traveling on
Wandering soul
Wherever you go
Running to
Do what can I do
To keep the lights on for you
Do bridges lead to paradise
Or dreams inside a block of ice
With chariots wild as thunderstorms
To carry you away
Follow blind the hills are steep
The valleys long and black and deep
And you can lose your footing on the way
Wandering soul, ohhh
Standing where the apples grow
Heavy on the bough
And show their beauty
Shining red among the leaves
Never say a long goodbye
Catch a spark and watch it fly
Catch a flame and hold it til it flees
Wandering Soul
You got no place to call home
Just traveling on
Wandering soul
Wherever you go running to
Do what I can do
To keep the lights on for you
Wandering Soul
Wandering Soul
Wandering Soul
