Lyrics:
Restless spirit, wandering, come on home again Tell me about your days of old, wander back again You won't admit your life is taken, to your death not yet awakened Restless spirit wandering, come on home again Oglethorpe was around this place some hundred fifty years Since a Union bullet hit it's mark, and his teenaged heart it pierced Years ago a young girl lived here, she became his friend But when their family moved away their friendship had to end When we bought this house the neighbors came and talked about him Though we've not heard or seen a thing, I hope he comes again I'd like to ask him lots of things, and hear the way he talks Describing local battle scenes on some slow morning walk Restless spirit, wandering, come on home again Tell me about your days of old, wander back again Don't admit your life is taken, to your death not yet awaken Restless spirit wandering, come on home again The room I write used to be a two car garage A nineteen fifties chrome and fin and white wall tired montage Years later it became a church, and they moved an organ in And these walls would shake with holy songs and sermons against sin I like to think this place was made for the kind of work I do I'll try to be ready when the spirit comes back through I'll write it down and sort it out and make it fairly rhyme And marry it to melody of the highest flying kind I want to try be to a friend to souls that cannot rest I would not blame their anger, don't claim to know what's best But souls are all connected like the branches on a tree And things they see beyond the grave might help out you and me Restless spirit, wandering, come on home again Tell me about your days of old, wander back again Tell me as you come and go, things that people need to know Restless Spirit, wandering, come on home again Don't admit your life is taken, to your death not yet awaken Restless spirit wandering, come on home again
