Restless Fugitive Songtext

von Willy Mason

Walking home all burned and broken
Oh, you restless fugitive
With the front door, my heart opens
Oh, you restless fugitive
Once inside, words are spoken
Oh, you restless fugitive
Asking how to mend the broken
Oh, you restless fugitive

Tell us how they brought you down
Oh, you restless fugitive
And why d'you let them hang around?
Oh, you restless fugitive
Tell us when you left the earth
Oh, you restless fugitive
And promise next time you'll call first
You restless fugitive

I feel the need to ask forgiveness
You restless fugitive
I didn't act on things I witnessed
Oh, you restless fugitive
Helpless as I watched them drown
Oh, you restless fugitive
Now I've turned the boat around
Oh, you restless fugitive

And how I felt the shackles round me
Oh, you restless fugitive
When I left this world behind me
Oh, you restless fugitive
I thought that heaven there would find me
Oh, you restless fugitive
But heaven's in the town that born me
Oh, you restless fugitive

Oh, you restless fugitive
Oh, you restless fugitive
Oh, you restless fugitive
