The Wanderlust (Acoustic)

Well, I'd love to photograph your hand
Then shake it for a while
'Cause you learn so much about someone
A brother or a swine

The veins that plow beneath your path
With so many tales to tell
A picture out of focus
In a frame where no one cares

Calm the ocean breeze
Quiet the raging sea
This stormy ship we sail
Is a bottle filled with rage

Do you still walk the streets at night?
With the wanderlust you fight
Back to the corner
Where we went our separate ways

Well, we walked upon the railroad
'Cause the train no longer ran
Where we caught a glimpse of all we missed
From the stars that filled your eyes

With a dollar in your only coat
And a fireball in your hand
You set your sails for better days
Down in South Australia

Dark though it has been
Your old spirit still shines within
These last 13 years depraved
Of us anything that's worth saying

Do you still walk the streets at night?
With the wanderlust you fight
Back to the corner
Where we went our separate ways

So, raise a cheer
To those forgotten years
Back to the corner
Where we went out separate ways

Do you still walk the streets at night?
With the wanderlust you fight
Back to the corner
Where we went our separate ways

Do you still walk the streets at night?
With the wanderlust you fight
Back to the corner
Where we went our separate ways

Now the carnival's going home
And the ferris wheel has spent
For those roving years of endless cheers
Have dried all that was left
