Wanderlust

About Wanderlust

"Wanderlust" is a song written and recorded by Icelandic singer Björk. The track was released digitally as the fourth single from her seventh full-length studio album, Volta, on 7 April 2008. White labels of the single were issued in February 2008. The physical single was released on 12 June after an almost two-month delay. Björk has described "Wanderlust" as being the heart of Volta, and has said that the song is about "the state of looking for something and almost knowing you're never going to find it" and that it makes fun of her hunger for "something new". It was released in the UK on 30 June. As Björk said in an interview for Harp, "Things go in circles. Wanderlust, for example, is a sort of continuity of 'Hyperballad'." more »

I am leaving this harbor
Giving urban a farewell
Its habitants seem too keen on god
I cannot stomach their rights and wrongs

I have lost my origin
And I don't want to find it again
Whether sailing into nature's laws
And be held by ocean's paws

Wanderlust, relentlessly craving
Wanderlust, peel off the layers
Until we get to the core

Did I imagine it would be like this
Was it something like this I wished for
Or will I want more

Lust for comfort
Suffocates the soul
Relentless restlessness
Liberates me (sets me free)

I feel at home

Whenever the unknown surrounds me
I receive its embrace
Aboard my floating house

Wanderlust, relentlessly craving
Wanderlust, peel off the layers
Until we get to the core

Did I imagine it would be like this
Was it something like this I wished for
Or will I want more

Wanderlust, from island to island
Wanderlust, united in movement
Wonderful, I'm joined with you

Wanderlust, wanderland

Can you spot a pattern

(Relentlessly restless)

Can you spot a pattern
Can you
