Lyrics
RESTLESS WATERS
Dip your hands into those waters
Though they won't quench your thirst for home
They will cleanse your soul of wanting not to roam
For the taste of placid waters
Can't refresh like running streams
And they might flow into a golden valley you've never seen
| For the road goes on forever
| Past the wildly raging rivers
| Past the storm as it delivers
| Summer rain, summer rain
Well the leaving brings the passing
Of the old home you have known
For in strange in quiet ways you have grown
Your eyes can see more clearly
And you hear the distant sound
Of restless water flowing from higher ground
Refrain
You may stop to watch the seasons
As they stroll through some nice town
But you can't kill the urge to follow the outward bound
For the taste of placid waters
Can't refresh like running streams
They might flow into a golden valley you've never seen
Refrain (2x)
