Last Night I Went Out Walking Lyrics - Through The Trees - Handsome Family

Last night I went out walking 

Out on the edge of town 

Not going no place special 

Only wandering around 

I came upon a river 

I thought about what you said 

And couldn't stop it flowing 

And running through my head 

You said that I've been changing 

And never seemed to laugh 

But I can't recall the last time you smiled 

And it's tearing me in half 

I want to run and tell you the thoughts that are in my head 

But I don't think that you'd believe 

A single word I said 

The river's water runs so cool 

It calms my burning skin 

It takes away my aching thoughts 

And cleanses all my sin 

So let it flow on, take me down 

To sleep that quiet sleep 

And roll my body back to you 

My love you may always keep
