Walk Away
Michaels, Level

It's been too long since I've seen her
She left one day without saying a word
Sick of broken promises
Empty dreams and endless lies

There was on old man sitting in a rockin' chair
Said "I knew just why she disappeared"
Said "boy to me, it's plain to see
Never gave that girl a reason to believe"

Well I wish she would call
Try to get ahold of me
But I know she got the message
That I left on my machine

That said I'd walk across the desert
I'd sail the seven seas
I'd fly around the world
Right here closer to me

I'd mend the bridges that I burned
Withstand the pouring rain
If you come back to me
I'd never let you walk away again

Some men learn and some men don't
Some try to and some they won't
My past is full of broken dreams
The road ahead is plain to see

Well I walked to places that we've been
I was hoping sthat maybe you'd stop in
Like some famous final scene
Fade to black, just be you and me

Well I wish she would call
Try to get ahold of me
But I know you got the message
That I left on my machine

That said I'd walk across the desert
I'd sail the seven seas
I'd fly around the world
Right here closer to me

I'd mend the bridges that I burned
Withstand the pouring rain
If you come back to me
I'd never let you walk away again
