lyrics

Well it leaves your heart abandoned on the highway
And your tidy life just out of control
And there's no way home or place to hide away
When the Gypsy soul comes to stay

And there’s just no point to try and find him
The more you search the less you see
Like the fog in off the ocean
There’s no walls but you’re not free

Oh the heart is like the ocean
And there’s no shelter on the shore
And when you feel the storm approaching
The gypsy soul comes through your door

chorus

Have you seen the eyes of strangers
When there's nowhere left to hide
And the journey keeps on calling
So they hitch another ride

And there's no point and there's no reason
And there's no hope if you get called
Oh that Gypsy soul will haunt you
And the road becomes your world


And if you hold me firm and gentle
If you understand my plight
And if the light goes out inside me
Would you see me through the night

Now that feeling has come to take me
To this place I don't choose to go
So I stand here in quiet surrender
The Gypsy soul just won't let go
