Overnight Bag Lyrics - Photo Finish - Rory Gallagher

Packed my things in an overnight bag 

A toothbrush and guitar, got no tail to drag 

Gonna leave on the next passing breeze 

My heart is heavy as a sky full of rain 

Mind full of notions that I just can't explain 

The reasons why, just can't be supplied 

Trapped by a heartache and freed by my will 

Sentenced to wander, so much time to kill 

Hear my plea and rescue me 

Packed my sorrows in an overnight bag 

But I'll be gone much longer than that 

Who knows when we'll meet again? 

Too many sleepless nights put my soul on edge 

And so many restless moods lay heavy in my head 

Too many sleepless nights put my soul on edge 

And so many restless moods lay heavy in my head 

Wrote down my thoughts and I sealed them in hope 

Sent them to you in a blue envelope 

Not received, it seems to me 

I had some things that I wanted to say 

But my chance, well, it just blew away 

On the breeze like some mystery
