Walking After Midnight Lyrics


I was walking after midnight
Yeah, out in the moonlight the way we used to do
I'm always walking after midnight
Searching for you
I'm always walking after midnight
Searching for youI stop to see a weeping willow crying on his pillow
Maybe he's a-crying for me
And as the skies turn gloomy
The night winds whisper to me I'm lonesome as I can be
I'm always walking after midnight
Searching for youI walk for miles along the highway
Well, that's just my way of saying love you
I'm always walking after midnight
Searching for you
I walk for miles along the highway
Searching for youI'm always walking after midnight
Yeah, out in the moonlight
Hoping you may be somewhere

A-walking after midnight searching for me
I'm always walking after midnight
Searching for you

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
The Cowboy Junkies is a Canadian alt-country band formed by three siblings from the Timmins entertainment family (Margo Timmins, vocals; Michael Timmins, songwriter & guitars; Peter Timmins, drums) plus Alan Anton on bass. The group formed in Toronto in 1986. The band's name was simply a random choice as they approached their first ever gig, but it has come to perfectly represent their sound. (Some sources may credit Townes Van Zandt's song "Cowboy Junkies Lament" as the source of the band's name, but that song was written especially for Cowboy Junkies several years after they coined the name.)

The Trinity Session is perhaps their best known record, recorded live in a single day on a single microphone in a church in Toronto. This album also included a unique cover version of Lou Reed's "Sweet Jane". Reed reportedly liked the Junkies' version of the song better than his own, and began performing their version in concert.

None of the band's subsequent albums have been hits outside of Canada, although the band has maintained a dedicated following and have continued to have chart hits in their native country. Following their 1998 album Miles from Our Home, Cowboy Junkies were dropped from their major label contract. They have continued to release albums on their own independent label, Latent Records.
