WALK AWAY
~Paul Natanauan~
It's hard to look away as I make it through the day.
It's also hard to know that you're out of my reach.
I never saw it coming. Inside of me it's burning.
But I know I have no right to stand in your way.
And now you’re walking away after telling me that you have somebody new.
But it’s okay because I know that letting you go is another way of saying I love you.
[Chorus]
So just turn around and walk away.
What’s done is done. It’s all over.
I know I can’t make you stay.
Maybe someday you’ll be back and it will last forever.
As I wake up in the morning I still hear your voice calling.
It was just in my mind but how I wish it were real.
Another day passes and nothing else changes.
It takes all my strength to contain how I feel.
And though it takes a lot of strength to fight for what you feel is right.
It takes even greater strength to let go and give up this losing fight.
