Walking By Lyrics

[Verse]
Keep me locked up
Keep me shut in
You can, but my mind still roams free
You can keep me caged
You can tell me to be quiet
But I remember everything

[Refrain]
Please don't forget that you broke your own heart
And don't forget that you lost your mind

[Chorus]
Please stop telling everybody that I didn't follow you
'Cause every step I take I'm always here without you
And I don't need words or anything from you
And I wish I never felt it
Kept on walking by
And I wish I never met you
Kept on walking by
Keep me locked up
Keep me shut in
But I remember everything

[Refrain]
Please don't forget that you sought your own heart
And don't forget that you lost your way
[Chorus]
Please stop telling everybody that I didn't follow you
'Cause every step I take I'm always here behind you
And I don't need words or anything from you
And I wish I never seen it
Kept on walking by
And I wish I never met you
Kept on walking by
And I wish I never tried it
Kept on walking by
And I wish I never felt it

Please stop telling everybody that I didn't follow you
'Cause every step I take I'm always here without you
And I don't need words or anything from you
And I wish I never met you
Kept on walking by
And I wish I never felt it
Kept on walking by
And I wish I never seen it
Kept on walking by
And I wish I never met you
Kept on walking by

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
