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
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
Pleased and terrified
Backing out of the race
Extra edified
I want my sentences back
Can't remember their faces
Holding on to nothing, man
Stand on my life
I'm writing my delivery
Walk the river
Like a hunted animal
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
Holding on to nothing, man
Stand on my life
Here is my delivery
Walk the river
Like a hunted animal
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
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

pretty sure the animal was being hunted not haunted...
I couldn't decide, I could hear both! Edited :)

Does anyone know why he says "fell in love with a boy"? That's the only part I can't understand of this song yet...
From what I can get, I think it's about trying to run away from a relationship, and the things you think about, and all that passes through your mind (christmas holidays, summmer vacation)... not sure if I'm right, though.
Well, isn't the boy just a person the now-tired relationship was with? I don't think there's much to the line.

I suspect it means he fell in love with a boy.

I think the 1st stanza is from the perspective of the girl who has hurt him. So when it says "fell in love with a boy" it means she fell in love with him and then "grew tired of him". I think the song is about a girl who leaves him to travel the world while he is left at home- hence "And I'm still here" and I think the line "Did someone mention the weather" is a about how he's sick of staying in Britain and people just talking about the weather....

@ManOnTheMoon92 He tried everything to feel better. He even fell in love with a man without being gay.

And the river runs red.
Always when I think about life as an river I get the flux :) That is my favorite word of the English language. Hower, when on the flight without he option to fight mostly I can't remember a thing but does it matter in the end? So, run my animal run if you come to a hold you may start remembering and become ...
