Lyrics
I Let You 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.
I believe that nothing lasts forever
Promises won't help us stay together
Life for us was never hearts and flowers my friend
It seems we couldn't solve lifes problems
Maybe it's because we tried so seldom
So much must change today
That I can only hope and pray
Chorus
As I watch you leave the room that I'll see you very soon
And it's all that I can do to keep from running after you
And though I wanted you
I let you walk away
It's just a simple case of heartache
My hands begin to tremble and my knees shake
Somewhere along the line I hope we can make amends
I believe that nothing lasts forever
Promises won't help us stay together
You may come home one day
Till then I only hope and pray
As I watch you leave the room that I'll see you very soon
And it's all that I can do to keep from running after you
And though I wanted you
I let you walk away
