"Wanderlust" lyrics - DAVID SYLVIAN

Help me
I feel like I'm weightless
Floating right out of your hands

And there's only so much I aspire to
Taking one day at a time
And deliverance has many faces
But grace is an acquaintance of mine
Tell me how could it have happened?
You know that we're not the marrying kind.
Travel light, don't think twice
We're leaving the shadows behind.

It's given us this wonderful wanderlust
I don't doubt it, I feel it

Help me
This waterboy's wasted
Falling right out of your sky

And there's nothing I could do without you here
Loving the state that I'm in
Between no longer and not yet
On the threshold of some brighter thing
The match was struck and I was fire
The embers of a drowning man
Tell me why won't I listen
Or acknowledge that I don't understand?
Losing light, a selfish kind
And we're out on the road again

It's given us this wonderful wanderlust
I don't doubt it, I feel it

Turn the headlights on full
I want to take in it all
And let it wash over me

The bridge looked so high
From the banks that we climbed
But we climbed them so that we could be free

Give me no dreams of what the future brings
I need to know when I have gone too far

Repeated lightning strikes
Up and down the spine
They search us out wherever we are

In a world full of lies
That tug at the truth
I'm taking no sides
'Cos I recognise you.

It's given us this wonderful wanderlust
I don't doubt it, no
