Lyrics
0:09There's a kind of a restless feeling
0:11And it pulls me from within
0:14It sets my senses reeling
0:16And my wheels begin to spin
0:19In the quietude of winter
0:22You can hear the wild geese cry
0:25And I will always love that sound
0:28Until the day I die
0:32There's a plain and a simple answer
0:34To each and every quest
0:37From every quiet dancer
0:39Who might be a special guest
0:42In a movie made for TV
0:45Or a late night interview
0:48You might even find them
0:50On the 'Young and the Restless' too
0:55Do you get that restless feeling
0:57When you hear a whistle blast
0:59Like an echo from the past
1:02Of an old engine flying down
1:05A road that's iron cast
1:23The lake is blue the sky is gray
1:26The leaves have turned to gold
1:28The wild goose will be on her way
1:31The weather's much too cold
1:33When the muskie and the old trout too
1:36Have all gone down to rest
1:39We will be returning to the
1:41Things that we love best
1:46Do you get that restless yearning
1:48When you think about your dad
1:51And the scrimshaw that he had
1:54Of an old schooner roving
1:56'Neath a sky that's ironclad
2:22There's a kind of a restless feeling
2:24And it catches you off guard
2:27As we gaze off in the distance
2:29Through the trees in my back yard
2:32I can feel the restless yearning
2:35Of those geese as off they roam
2:38Then trade that for a warm bed
2:40And a place I can call home
2:45Will you get that restless yearning
2:47When you hear the wicked blast
2:49Of a sceptre from the past
2:52Of a cold diesel rolling down a road that's built to last
2:58Still I get that restless feeling
3:00When I hear a whistle blast
3:03See an image from the past
3:06Of an old schooner flying down a sky that's overcast
There's a kind of a restless feeling And it pulls me from within It sets my senses reeling And my wheels begin to spin In the quietude of winter You can hear the wild geese cry And I will always love that sound Until the day I die There's a plain and a simple answer To each and every quest From every quiet dancer Who might be a special guest In a movie made for TV Or a late night interview You might even find them On the 'Young and the Restless' too Do you get that restless feeling When you hear a whistle blast Like an echo from the past Of an old engine flying down A road that's iron cast The lake is blue the sky is gray The leaves have turned to gold The wild goose will be on her way The weather's much too cold When the muskie and the old trout too Have all gone down to rest We will be returning to the Things that we love best Do you get that restless yearning When you think about your dad And the scrimshaw that he had Of an old schooner roving 'Neath a sky that's ironclad There's a kind of a restless feeling And it catches you off guard As we gaze off in the distance Through the trees in my back yard I can feel the restless yearning Of those geese as off they roam Then trade that for a warm bed And a place I can call home Will you get that restless yearning When you hear the wicked blast Of a sceptre from the past Of a cold diesel rolling down a road that's built to last Still I get that restless feeling When I hear a whistle blast See an image from the past Of an old schooner flying down a sky that's overcast
