Lyrics
Restless Wind, by Kenny Weill
The wind rustlin’ through the trees
Are my lost friends and family
They may be long dead and gone
But they’re trying to pass it on
Their voices echo from history
They’re lookin’ out for me
They’re quick to raise the alarm
To keep me safe from harm
They warn of something really big
Dark forces surrounding me
Something we can’t turn back from
They’re beatin’ the drum
Chorus:
Isn’t it obvious
Can it get more obvious
Isn’t it obvious
Or are we oblivious
Isn’t it obvious
Can it get more obvious
Yeah, ain’t it obvious
Or are we oblivious
A perfect storm is gathering
My roof cannot shelter me
I worry I will let them down
And we all will drown
Then I hear the sound of restless leaves
A gust encompasses me
They’re determined to keep me strong
Making me write this song
Bridge (Spoken):
It starts as a breeze
Then whips up stronger
Til we can’t ignore its
Intent any longer
Grabs our attention
Like a shoulder tap
As we hang from a limb
That’s about to snap
Chorus:
Isn’t it obvious
Can it get more obvious
Isn’t it obvious
Or are we oblivious
Isn’t it obvious
Can it get more obvious
Yeah, ain’t it obvious
Or are we oblivious
If everyone listens for wind in the trees
They’ll feel the same way as me
Then together we’ll take up this fight
And turn back the tide
Then together we’ll take up this fight
And turn back the tide
Yeah, together we’ll take up this fight
And turn back the tide
