Walk Away
Alle Farben & James Blunt Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The last thing I recall was a question in my head
Some things we said don't make any sense
I can make myself real small, pretend I'm somewhere else
Leave you for a moment, but there's no escape from myself

I wake up with sunlight in my eyes
And finally as the sleep clears from my mind
And once again I realize
You still got nothing left to say
Except fall back on "I love you"

Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
There's too much water on the flames
You can't break into what remains
Oh darling, walk away
Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
You love me, that don't make it true
Because I've never seen the proof
And we should walk away (just walk away)
And we should walk away (just walk away)

I can ask you, "How's your day?"
I can sit with practiced warmth
Then we'll lie down again in this bed of thorns

And we cross paths like ghosts in the hallway
This beauty that I don't see, the beauty in before me
An example of a flower that's faded
We're crazy to use phrases like "I love you" (Love you, love you)

Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
There's too much water on the flames
You can't break into what remains
Oh darling, walk away
Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
You love me, that don't make it true
Because I've never seen the proof
And we should walk away (just walk away)

And we should walk away (just walk away)





And we should walk away (just walk away)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "Walk Away" by Alle Farben feat. James Blunt talks about a couple who have reached a point in their relationship where nothing seems to make sense anymore. The first verse describes the feeling of wanting to retreat from a situation where everything seems overwhelming, but realizing that there is no escape from one's own thoughts and feelings. The second verse speaks about the realization that the relationship is strained, but one of them keeps using the phrase "I love you" as a fallback even though it lacks sincerity. The chorus uses the repetition of "just cause you say" to emphasize that words do not always translate to actions, and that sometimes it's better to accept the reality of the situation and walk away.


The song is a powerful commentary on the complexities of relationships, the struggle to communicate effectively and the inherent flaws of language. It highlights the importance of actions over words, and how saying something does not always equate to meaning it. The lyrics use metaphors such as "bed of thorns" and "ghosts in the hallways" to emphasize the harmful and isolating nature of a strained relationship. The chorus, with its repeated call to "just walk away," amplifies how difficult it is to save a sinking relationship.


Line by Line Meaning

The last thing I recall was a question in my head
I remember questioning our relationship before things fell apart.


Some things we said don't make any sense
It's hard to understand what went wrong in our relationship because of the things we said.


I can make myself real small, pretend I'm somewhere else
I try to distance myself from our issues by pretending to be someone else.


Leave you for a moment, but there's no escape from myself
Though I may leave the situation for a moment, I can't escape my own thoughts and feelings about us.


I wake up with sunlight in my eyes
I start the day feeling hopeful and refreshed.


And finally as the sleep clears from my mind
As I become fully awake, I start to see things more clearly.


And once again I realize
It becomes clear to me again.


You still got nothing left to say
You don't have any explanation or solution for our problems.


Except fall back on "I love you"
All you can offer is your love, but that's not enough to fix things.


Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
Merely saying something doesn't make it true.


There's too much water on the flames
Our relationship has too many issues to be fixed easily.


You can't break into what remains
It's impossible to fix things that are already broken.


Oh darling, walk away
It might be best for us to end things and go our separate ways.


You love me, that don't make it true
Just because you say you love me doesn't necessarily mean it's true.


Because I've never seen the proof
I haven't seen enough evidence of your love for me.


And we should walk away (just walk away)
It's time for us to end things and move on.


I can ask you, "How's your day?"
I can try to make small talk to distract from the tension between us.


I can sit with practiced warmth
I can fake my emotions to make the situation more comfortable.


Then we'll lie down again in this bed of thorns
We'll still be stuck in this difficult, painful relationship.


And we cross paths like ghosts in the hallway
We barely interact anymore, like strangers who live in the same house.


This beauty that I don't see, the beauty in before me
I don't appreciate the good things in our relationship anymore.


An example of a flower that's faded
Our relationship is like a flower that has lost its bloom.


We're crazy to use phrases like "I love you" (Love you, love you)
Saying we love each other seems pointless and foolish given our relationship's problems.

Ostatnią rzeczą jaką wspominam było pytanie w mojej głowie 
Niektóre rzeczy, które powiedzieliśmy nie mają sensu
Mogę sprawić ze będę nikim ważnym, udawać, ze jestem gdzie indziej.
Zostawić Cie na moment, ale nie ma ucieczki od siebie samego
Budzę się ze słonecznym blaskiem w oczach
Aż w końcu mój umysł budzi się ze snu
I jeszcze raz zdaje sobie sprawę
ze nadal nie masz nic do powiedzenia

Po prostu gdy mówisz, po prostu gdy mówisz
Jest za dużo wody w płomieniach
Nie możesz włamać się do czegoś czego nie ma
Oj, Kochanie odejdź,

Po prostu gdy mówisz, po prostu gdy mówisz
ze mnie kochasz, nie mówisz tego szczerze
Ponieważ nigdy nie widziałem dowodów na to
I powinniśmy się rozstać, (po prostu rozstać)

I powinniśmy się rozstać, (po prostu rozstać)

Mogę zapytać Cię "Jak minął dzień?"
Mogę usiąść ze znajomym ciepłem
Następnie znowu płożymy się do łóżka z cierniami

Przejdziemy ścieżki jak duchy po korytarzu
To piękno, którego nie widzę, to piękno w środku przede mną
Tak jak kwiat, który więdnie
Jesteśmy szaleni gdy używamy slow "Kocham Cię" (kocham, kocham, kocham)


Po prostu gdy mówisz, po prostu gdy mówisz
Jest za dużo wody w płomieniach
Nie możesz włamać się do czegoś czego nie ma
Oj, Kochanie odejdź,

Po prostu gdy mówisz, po prostu gdy mówisz
ze mnie kochasz, nie mówisz tego szczerze
Ponieważ nigdy nie widziałem dowodów na to
I powinniśmy się rozstać, (po prostu rozstać)

I powinniśmy się rozstać, (po prostu

Text PL
Ostatnia rzecz, jaką pamiętam, było pytanie w mojej głowie
Niektóre rzeczy, o których mówiliśmy, nie mają sensu
Mogę zrobić się mały, udawać, że jestem gdzie indziej
Zostawić cię na chwilę, ale nie ma ucieczki od siebie

Budzę się ze słońcem w oczach
I wreszcie, gdy sen znika z mojego umysłu
Jeszcze raz zdaję sobie sprawę
Że wciąż nie masz nic do powiedzenia
Z wyjątkiem powrotu do słów „Kocham cię”

Tylko dlatego, że mówisz, tylko dlatego, że mówisz
Za dużo wody na płomieniach
Nie możesz włamać się do tego, co pozostaje
Och kochanie, odejdź

Tylko dlatego, że mówisz, tylko dlatego, że mówisz
Że kochasz mnie, to nie znaczy, że to prawda
Ponieważ nigdy nie widziałem na to dowodu
I powinniśmy się rozejść (po prostu rozejść)

I powinniśmy się rozejść (po prostu rozejść)

Mogę cię zapytać: „Jak tam twój dzień?”
Mogę siedzieć z wyćwiczonym ciepłem
Potem znów się położymy w tym łóżku cierniowym

I krzyżujemy ścieżki jak duchy w korytarzu
To piękno, którego nie widzę, piękno przede mną
Przykład kwiatu, który wyblakł
Jesteśmy szaleni, by używać takich fraz jak „Kocham cię”
(kocham cię, kocham cię)

Tylko dlatego, że mówisz, tylko dlatego, że mówisz
Za dużo wody na płomieniach
Nie możesz włamać się do tego, co pozostaje
Och kochanie, odejdź

Tylko dlatego, że mówisz, tylko dlatego, że mówisz
Że kochasz mnie, to nie znaczy, że to prawda
Ponieważ nigdy nie widziałem na to dowodu
I powinniśmy się rozejść (po prostu rozejść)

I powinniśmy się rozejść (po prostu rozejść)
I powinniśmy się rozejść (po prostu rozejść)

"Walk Away"

The last thing I recall
Was a question in my head
Some things we said don't make any sense

I can make myself real small
Pretend I'm somewhere else
Leave you for a moment, but there's no escape from myself

I wake up with sunlight in my eyes
And finally as the sleep clears from my mind
And once again I realize
You still got nothing left to say except fall back on "I love you"

Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
There's too much water on the flames
You can't break into what remains
Oh darling, walk away

Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
You love me, that don't make it true
Because I've never seen the proof
And we should walk away (Just walk away)

And we should walk away (Just walk away)

I can ask you, "How's your day?"
I can sit with practiced warmth
Then we'll lie down again in this bed of thorns

And we cross paths like ghosts in the hallway
This beauty that I don't see, the beauty in before me
An example of a flower that's faded
We're crazy to use phrases like, "I love you"

Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
There's too much water on the flames
You can't break into what remains
Oh darling, walk away

Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
You love me, that don't make it true
Because I've never seen the proof
And we should walk away (Just walk away)

And we should walk away (Just walk away)
And we should walk away (Just walk away)
