Walk Away
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Every time I have to lie it tears me apart
Every time I see you cry, it takes a piece of my heart
I know that I said, never, never, walk away from you
I know that I said, I'd always be there my whole life through
I got to walk away, walk away
There's nothing left that I can do but walk away
Walk away
Slowly turn my eyes from you and walk away
Every time I make believe, it hurts more and more
There was a time I couldn't see, now I know for sure
I know that I can't help it if it hurts you when I say goodbye
Don't know why it has to be the way it is, I tried and I tried
I got to walk away, walk away
There's nothing left that I can do but walk away
Walk away
Slowly turn my eyes from you and walk away
Walk away, walk away
I got to walk away, walk away
There's nothing left that I can do but walk away
Walk away
Slowly turn my eyes from you and walk away
Walk away
I got to walk away
There's nothing left that I can do but walk away
Walk away
Slowly turn my eyes from you and walk away
I got to walk away, walk away
Walk, walk, walk away
Walk away
