Drop me a line if you’re walking
And thinking of holding my hand
Cause you’re the only person I imagine
Truly loving me back
And I have been a wandering soul
But darling, didn’t you know?
Is there anything we can do
Force connection while I’m away
Don’t you want to trust in fate and falling
But I’m far now, and you keep calling
All the life and days we spent
Weighing potential regret
Did we go too far, did I hold back?
Will I ever meet you where you’re at?
Is there anything I can say?
Stay or leave, I’m wrong either way
Do I want to go where you’re leading
If I give up now, will you keep calling
I’ll tell anyone who listens all about you
And my sea of uncertainty
Should I give up and settle in?
Or is distance just reality
And I have been so unsure
But darling, that’s what I came here for
Is there anything we can do
Weeks pass will it all be the same?
If only I could give up this stalling
Then maybe I’d be the one calling

Restless Heart

Oh I kept trying to separate
Move on, rip the bandage, self medicate
So I left home, boarded a plane
I'm shaking hands, making plans, repeating my name
Find myself still ripping the bandage
Oh I’m not taking leaps of faith
I’m just drawing the biggest blanks
How can I know what I’ll want
Just feeding this restless heart
So what’s this, who are you trying to be
Take the convictions you hold, grip them so tightly
And time may bend and break
The people you know, the places you love so dearly
You’ll find yourself letting go
Oh you’ll be faking sane
Unsure of just what to say
How will you know what you want?
Giving in to your restless heart
I’m getting good at not doing things I say
When shit gets hard you'll find me far away
I’ll swear I’m honest and in tune
But I am losing sleep over impressing you
Oh I’m not taking leaps of faith
I’m just drawing the biggest blanks
How can I know what I’ll want
Just feeding this restless heart
I'm feeding this restless heart
Giving into this restless heart

Take every string I’m certain of
Pluck them right away
And make me ache for a place
Where they don’t know my name
Cause I built my hope on an image of home
A fall back plan, a steady hand, somewhere where I am known
But now it’s split in two, there’s them and there’s you
Will I ever be whole again?
Push me across the ocean
Then up and leave
Force me to burn bridges
And then realize they’re all I need
Cause my hometown glory is a fading story
The same old bands, the person that I have been
I can’t belong, the pieces are wrong
Will I ever be needed again?
Someday I’ll be the girl
Who is confident and at least mostly sure
She is where she belongs, knows her right from her wrong
Is settled but’ll go when she’s drawn
So let me be the hero, write my own story
But I am subject to the world
I’ll go where she pulls me
