Every once in a while I have this feeling course through me. A feeling of restlessness. A deep need to change tracks and do something different. Except at most times, I do not know what this ‘different’ is that I am craving. I talk to friends, write down lists, mull over it some and hope it goes away. This restless feeling.
Now is no different and I am caught up in one of those intense restless spells. While I wish it away, I leave you with this:
Restless
– Jeremy Stover/Willie Mack/Sara Evans
I’m a leaf on the river
Fallen from the tall oak tree
Drifting down this moving stream
Wherever this life carries me
I’m a tumbleweed
In the desert wind
Just tumblin’ while
The sun’s shinin’
I have no boundaries
Call me a gypsy
I’m restless
Just ramblin’
What do you do, where do you go
When nowhere feels like home
I’m restless
Am I an angel fallen from heaven’s grace
Oh, it feels like that some days and I can’t find my place
I guess God just made some of us
To live and die by highway dust
Guess I just have to trust
On the days I’m crawlin’
This is my callin’
I’m restless
Just ramblin’
What do you do, where do you go
When nowhere feels like home
I’m restless
Oh, to hold somebody close that cares
Oh, to finally find some roots somewhere
I know someday I’ll find that it’s out there
But until then I’ll just keep movin’
What do you do, where do you go
When nowhere feels like home
I’m restless
I know how you feel! I feel it often, sometimes too often and wish it away too. But maybe I’m going about it in the wrong way. If you find the answer to dealing with it, let me know 🙂
Oh, to hold somebody close that cares
Oh, to finally find some roots somewhere

But until then I’ll just keep movin’
Even after we find all these still to feel restless , where shall one go?
So apt for fall. Sounds so familiar.
hmm i think reading a good novel and loosing yourself might be the answer.
