Lyrics for Wanderlust

I have wept until I've slept Into the lap of the lady that I love And though she begged and she cajoled I couldn't tell her what I was thinking of I didn't chose, no I was chosen By a life that must be lived in passing through And though she changed so much of me Changing this is the one thing I cannot do Darling, I'm leaving The distance keeps calling me on Darling, come morning I'll be gone She is beauty, she is graceful In a poison she is gentle in her care She is the calm within the centre of my storm She is her fingers through my hair She has my heart but it is breaking Cause it knows that deep inside she still believes That there will ever come a morning when I'm staying Not gathering to leave Darling, I'm leaving The distance keeps calling me on Darling, come morning I'll be gone Baby let's get out of the city We need to breathe some cleaner air That creeping feeling starting like I miss you And we're both of us still here There's a sadness in your smiles now And an edge of desperation in your voice We have all this independence But it still feels like we never had a choice Darling, I'm leaving
