Birds are calling by the river side
One on each bank calling side to side
I saw you once and I lost my mind
Now I can't sleep I can't unwind
I reach for you you're not there
I turn around I'm talking to the air
Rest-less-less I'm turning all night
Rest-less-less I'm losing my mind
Listen to my heart go beat-beat-beat
Saying do you want me-me-me
Rest-less-less I'm turning all night
I pick the reeds along the river bend
Left and right I don't know where to end
I want to play a song to make you stay
But you're so far so far away
I reach for you you're not there
I turn around I'm talking to the air
Rest-less-less I'm turning all night
Rest-less-less I'm losing my mind
Listen to my heart go beat-beat-beat
Saying do you want me-me-me
Rest-less-less I'm turning all night
If I could play the strings for you
If I could beat the drums for you
Would you turn around and stay
Would you love me back someday
Rest-less-less I'm turning all night
Rest-less-less I'm losing my mind
Listen to my heart go beat-beat-beat
Saying do you want me-me-me
Rest-less-less I'm turning all night
Beat-beat-beat
Me-me-me
Rest-less
