Restless Heart - Fast Movin' Train

De band Restless Heart, opgericht in 1984, Verlon Thompson was toen de leadzanger. Maar dat was van korte duur, voor dat de opname, van het eerste gelijknamige album, Restless Heart werd gestart, was de leadzanger vervangen door Larry Stewart. Dat was zeker geen verzwakking, Larry Stewart, met zijn duidelijk herkenbare stemgeluid was bepalend voor het sucses. De andere bandleden ondersteunden Larry bekwaam, met close harmonisch. Restless Heart heeft 7 studioalbums afgeleverd, maar Larry Stewart verliet de band, na het 4e album Fast Movin’ Train, u luistert naar de gelijknamige song van het album.

Songtext.

 She had a long line of lovers,
Mostly the gambling kind
I didn’t want to be like the others
And get left behind
I heard about her bad reputation
And how she had a heart of stone
How she’d give a man a moment of pleasure
To get what she wants

I had a weakness for her kind of woman
I could never deny
I knew I wouldn’t ever see it coming
‘Til I was lost in her eyes
But the more I tried to keep her at a distance
The more I became aware
She was breaking down my resistance
‘Til I no longer cared

(CHORUS)
Tonight I saw the red, red rose and the yellow moon
Shining on the silhouette lying in the shadows of my bedroom
I knew it when we made love and I couldn’t quit calling her name
That I’d been hit by another fast movin’ train
I’d been hit by another fast movin’ train

I wondered as I lay there and held her
Why can’t this be real And why the fear wouldn’t let me tell her
How good she made me feel
I doubted if she would even be around when the moment comes
I waited ’til she fell asleep to whisper,
“Baby, look what you’ve done.”

(REPEAT CHORUS TWICE)
