Belle And Sebastian Roy Walker Lyrics

Roy Walker Lyrics

I wondered all night

I wondered all night about you

I've been here for years

Just wanderin' around the neighborhood



Like a fresh manifestation of an old phenomenon

The breeze whips through the trees

The rustling leaves and branches bend together

They're cued to sway

Forever by the forces of the Lord's choreography



I wandered all night

I wondered all night about you

I've been here for years

Just wanderin' around the neighborhood



Just for a second the combination of sights

Sounds around him sends him hurtlin' back to the mirror

Of all of his teenager thoughts and fears



He passes big houses and family cars

They saddled the horses in cobblestone yards

He catches the moon lookin' down from the stars

Like it's done for years and years



I wandered, I wandered

I wondered all night about you

I wandered, I wandered

I wondered all night, all night about you



Perpetual feeling in the grown up world that's all

Around him that there's secrets that could be revealed

With knowledge and philosophy



And, oh, to be dumb, oh, to be smart

He might be nursin' a broken heart

But feelin' this way he's just playin' a part

That's been around for centuries



I wandered all night

I wondered all night about you

I've been here for years

Just wanderin' around the neighborhood

I wandered all night

I wondered all night about you
