Song Description

Aaron Till brings viola to the party for the slow waltzing 'Restless Melody' where music and love dance together, sometimes up close when it "feels like a husband and wife" and sometimes needing to be reeled back in while she's "trying to find the key to keep you close to me" and with the droll musicianly line that "if my words should fail me now, what I can do is hum a bridge over to you". - Mike Davies, folking.com, UK

Lyrics

restless melody, words and music by beth wimmer

Verse -
i have my story you sing it back to me
you know how to bring me to life
bittersweet stumble, the way you dance with me
feels like a husband and wife

sometimes we flow in a steady stream
and our rhythm falls right as rain
then you're quickly drifting away from me
and i throw you a line once again

Chorus -
oh - you're my restless melody and i'm trying to find the key
to keep you close to me, my restless melody

Verse -
you're my fantasy you're my reality
completing my thoughts in the night
i've a voice and you are my way to speak
when we come together it's tight

every song i sing you're the breath i breathe
you play with my words every day
sometimes you're solid like the ground i need
then i feel you sliding away

Chorus -
oh - you're my restless melody and i'm trying to find the key
to keep you close to me, my restless melody
hey i'm tryin to find the key to finally set you free
and i need you here with me, my restless melody

Bridge -
and if my words should fail me then
what i can do is hum a bridge over to you

Instrumental

Chorus -
oh - you're my restless melody and i'm trying to find the key
to keep you close to me, my restless melody
hey i'm tryin to find the key to finally set you free
but i need you here with me, my restless melody
