he called me as the pink was rising
off the pacific on a Wednesday afternoon
asked me if I could stay a couple of extra days
I said no
I couldn't let myself go
always moving
it's my strong head fighting thy will
always moving
'cause I can't find myself
when I'm standing still
and I wonder if my life is somehow going on down there
even though I've been absent over five years time
and you asked me for my patience, but I miss the sound of that town
I can't seem to settle here, and you can't seem to make up your mind
always moving
it's my strong head fighting thy will
always moving
'cause I can't find myself
when I'm standing still
so boy don't be surprised
when you're lifting up that veil and finding a teary eyed girl
who somehow resembles me
'cause we were there last night in my dreams
and i'm going back
even if it's without you
but I don't want it to be without you boy
and you called me as the plane was boarding
you said, "are you gonna stay down a couple of extra days"
I said, oh no, no, no, no darling, I'm coming home
even though I don't believe that you are my home
always moving
it's my strong head fighting thy will
always moving
'cause I can't find myself
when I'm standing still
I can't find myself
not too much these days
