Don't Walk Away
David and Shekinah Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And too much to handle
Try to find some peace of mind
Let it go.
Wait a minute, you know this road
It's gonna leave you on overload, yeah
'Cause somebody cares, yeah
I will be right there
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
When I reach out to you, look around
I will be right here
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Tonight
Don't make a sound
I'll be your voice
You don't need to be afraid
Anymore
I'll shine a light out in the dark
Guide you here no matter how far
Oh, yeah
'Cause somebody cares, oh yeah
I can see you hurting, (turn around)
I will be right there
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
When I reach out to you, look around
I will be right here
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Open up, let it all out tonight, yeah
Open up, and everything will be alright
I can see you hurting, (turn around)
I will be right there
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
When I reach out to you, look around
I will be right here
Don't run away, don't run away, don't run away
Turn around, don't run away, don't run away
I will be right here, oh
Tonight, tonight
