Jason Boland & The Stragglers – Restless Spirits Lyrics

Verse 1
For reasons that don’t matter, I was walking down the alley
When I heard this music coming through the screen
Without really thinking, I walked up to the window
To a scene that felt just like a dream

Chorus
She was standing in the kitchen
Her face turned towards the ceiling
Her eyes were closed but still they held a light
And from a battered guitar came a sound like angels weeping
They’re all those restless spirits in the night

Verse 2
I don’t know how long I stood there, but it felt like many lifetimes
Before I found her love flown away
Walking back down the alley, feeling so much better
I knew that I could take another day

Chorus
She was standing in the kitchen
Her face turned towards the ceiling
Her eyes were closed but still they held a light
And from a battered guitar came a sound like angels sweeping
They’re all those restless spirits in the night

And from a battered guitar came a sound like angels weeping
They’re all those restless spirits in the night
