Guillemots - Walk the River lyrics

Fell in love with a boy Grew tired of it Fell in love with the world Yearned to fly from it Fell in love with myself Broke it off for the breeze Broke it off for the weather Walking slowly through space Pleased and terrified Backing out of the race Extra edified I want my sentences back Can't remember their faces And I'm still here Holding on to nothing, man Stand on my life I'm writing my delivery Walk the river Like a hunted animal Everything was the life The summer holidays Christmastime in the drive Always out of range Sit down and fall on a star Did someone mention the weather Did someone mention the weather And I'm still here Holding on to nothing, man Stand on my life Here is my delivery Walk the river Like a hunted animal It's an endless conversation With an endless voice, over endless fascination Over endless choice, and my heart's going out of missions on imagined motorways I never said I was right, I just hoped you thought it anyway Walk the river Like a hunted animal Walk the river Like a hunted animal Walk the river Like a hunted animal Walk the river You hunted animal Walk the river We are lost old animals
