Restless - CocoRosie

Her heart is restless and ready to fight

On a white horse all blue in the moonlight

She rides with grace in the wrong place at the right time

That’s how she found you but that’s how she lost you too

She’s got her shoes fixed with glue, sole like brand new

A stranger’s place, that’s where she takes her heartless rest

Her restless soul fell asleep at the wheel counting sheep

And dreaming of days out West with her rodeo clown, her man, her best

She walks the streets with bloody feet preaching to birds

She lost her head, voices of angels calling her name

Her loveless grace, the trial of her life, ready to burst her destiny ripe

It took this long for him to be gone for her to say goodbye

Dirty tricks, crucifix, had enough of this

Life of cuts and nicks, ticks and fits

Alchemist of light and dark, tried to keep that little spark

Her love was blind, it shattered her mind, and now she’s gone wild

In the moonshine with no mother and no child

She had to leave her old man behind

A deadbeat dad, another clown sad

Traded their love for cheap wine

And now she hit the road without a Jack or a John

And the story goes on, one day she’ll find her Don

The trial of her life, ready to burst her destiny ripe

Her love was blind, it shattered her mind

It took this long to leave him behind

She lost her way

She lost her way

She lost her way

She lost her way

And with no trace to find her way home

The trial of her life, ready to burst her destiny ripe

It took this long for him to be gone, for her to say goodbye

She lost her way

She lost her way

She lost her way

She lost her way

She lost her way

She lost her way

She lost her way

She lost her way

And with no trace to find her way home
