Walkabouts - Unwind
You’re an open gate
You’re an open gate
On a barbed wire fence
On a barbed wire fence
Swingin’ back and forth
Swingin’ back and forth
You know it scares me half to death
You know it scares me half to death
Funny how it moved
Funny how it moved
From a blessin’ to a curse
From a blessin’ to a curse
Ain’t it funny how we moved
Ain’t it funny how we moved
From the cursed, to the doomed
From the cursed, to the doomed
Will you
Will you
Will you unwind
Will you unwind
This heart of mine?
This heart of mine?
Heart of mine
Heart of mine
Busted but not broke
Busted but not broke
Shaken up and stirred
Shaken up and stirred
Watch out who you tell
Watch out who you tell
This night is hangin’ on each word
This night is hangin’ on each word
But when the mornin’ comes
But when the mornin’ comes
And the lies are cheap
And the lies are cheap
You’ll say: ’to live is to lose’
You’ll say: to live is to lose
I’ll say: ’losin’s the one thing... that we all keep’
I’ll say: losin’s the one thing... that we all keep
Will you... will you unwind?
Will you... will you unwind?
This heart of mine... heart of mine
This heart of mine... heart of mine
Both a blessin’ and a curse
Both a blessin’ and a curse
In everything we’ve heard
In everything we’ve heard
A blessin’ and a curse
A blessin’ and a curse
This night is hangin’ on... each... word
This night is hangin’ on... each... word
Lift your burdens up
Been a lot of rain out there
Rainin’ blind
Summer’s comin’ slow ... this year
It’s rainin’ blind
If ya come back tonight
... I’ll let it ... fall away
If ya come back tonight
Ya better have ... the guts to stay
Gravel’s loose ... and the load is shiftin’
Dreams are heavy ... they could use ... some ... liftin’
Come back now ... lay all your burdens down
And with a little luck ... I’ll lift your burdens up
Between my thoughts and my deeds
Delusion lies
I’ve forgotten everything
We ever tried
But if ya come back tonight
Careful what you bring
The sky’s unwinding here
Twisted like a busted spring
Gravel’s loose ... and the load is shiftin’
Dreams are heavy ... they could use ... some ... liftin’
Come back now ... and lay all your burdens down
And with a little luck ... I’ll lift your burdens up ... burdens up
If ya need me ... you can call
If ya need me ... I will call you
If ya need me ... you can call
If I need you ... I will call you
Ain’t goin’ anywhere fast
Gonna sit right here
Til the sky blows ... blows on past
Come back now ... lay all your burdens down
And with a little luck ... I’ll lift your burdens up
And when the trigger’s pulled ... ya know I’ll follow through
And you can bet your luck ... I’ll list your burdens up ... burdens up
