Walk Away Lyrics

[Verse 1:]
You could be with me, we could make it work
But you don’t wanna try
I guess giving up’s so right
We could be happy like we were before
But you gave up on us
Like three years is nothing much

[Chorus:]
It’s like torture to the soul
Tryin’ to let you go
Making me a mascara mess
It’s like torture to the soul
A pain that it’s so slow
I lie to myself and say it’s for the best
And watch you walk away
With every step you take, taking all the pain
Knowing my life will forever change
Watching, watching you walk away

[Verse 2:]
Ohh, we were so in love, forever was the plan
You’re always on my mind
But something changed yours this time
I wonder who you are, you’re not that guy I met
You lost yourself, you did
I wanna help you on let me in
[Chorus:]
It’s like torture to my soul
Tryin’ to let you go
Making me a mascara mess
It’s like torture to my soul
A pain that it’s so slow
I lie to myself and say it’s for the best
And I watch you walk away
With every step you take, taking all the pain
Knowing my life will forever change
Watching you, watching you walk away

[Bridge:]
And I can only stand back and let you do your thing
Cross my fingers you won’t take long
Finding your way back to me
And I can only hope all the promises you made
I want your road and stone
I want your plan to keep

[Chorus:]
'Cause it's torture to my soul
Watching as you go
You’re making me a mascara mess, ohh
It’s like torture to the soul
Tryin’ to let you go
Making me a mascara mess, yeahh
It’s torture to the soul
A pain that it’s so slow
I lie to myself and say it’s for the best
And I watch you walk away
With every step you take, taking all in
Knowing my life will forever change
Watching you, watching you walk away
Ohh, ohh
Watching, watching you walk away
