lirik lagu roddy hart - restless soul

[verse 1]
way back, long time ago
somewhere near the plains of mexico
she was standing on a roadside in the rain
blonde hair down to her breast
hard liquor and a fancy dress
nothing else but sorrow to her name
oh she was lost neath a sky black as coal
in a world that she could not control
like a bird of song
she was moving on
for she was born with a restless soul

[verse 2]
she had a troubled start
raised with a broken heart
up in that farmhouse on the hill
no dreams to call her own
days spent wandering alone
hoping to ignite some kind of thrill
oh when you’re young with no onе you can hold
pretty soon all you end up is cold
and she saw hеr fate
she could not relate
so took off with her restless soul

[verse 3]
there was a boy she knew
cared for her good and true
gave her everything she asked of him and more
but he felt so bereft
when she packed up and left
looking for the lights beyond his door
he discovered a note that she wrote
which she’d placed in the sleeve of his coat
saying though i’ve tried
i just can’t be tied
on account of a restless soul

[verse 4]
she moved from place to place
to find that one kind face
and light the darkness in her mind
she travelled way out west
made ends meet, i guess
men came and went from time to time
but to love and be loved takes its toll
when you just ain’t the most lovable
and she realised fast
it was too late, the die was cast
all because of her restless soul

[verse 5]
down at the mardi gras
is where i first saw her
begging for change out on the street
seemed like she’d lost her way
i took her down to the rouge cafe
bought her some drink and food to eat
i was alive to the stories she told
as the carnival lights shone like gold
and under her spell
i must admit i fell
for the girl with the restless soul

[verse 6]
we had a brief affair
both said we didn’t care
life was too short to settle down
then the strangest thing
we married in the spring
in that old chapel out of town
yet i knew we might stumble and fall
and our love, sure enough, hit the wall
i could not be blamed
she just would not be tamed
for she was chained to her restless soul

[verse 7]
years passed and we lost touch
it didn’t seem to matter much
nothing good can come from something bad
i heard she worked the scenes
from paris, france up to new orleans
trying hard to use what charm she had
but the con she put on soon got old
as her plan just began to unfold
and as things got worse
she couldn’t lift the curse
of a forceful and a restless soul

[verse 8]
she found somewhere to stay
with rent she could afford to pay
on a strip they call the chelsea mile
she got a job and tried her hand
playing bass in a covers band
and she was happy for a while
and for once she thought she’d filled the hole
like the thief who gave back what he stole
as with all her might
she struggled hard to fight
with the strength of her restless soul

[verse 9]
at night when it gets late
i think about the hands of fate
i start to wonder where she might be now
some say she’s like a ghost
drifting from coast to coast
the truth seems hard to find somehow
oh it’s a tale full of sadness and woe
to be bound by what you can’t let go
but should she break free
then say h~llo for me
give my best to her restless soul
