Walk Away
Hurts(허츠) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've been thinking about you
You've been looking at me
You've been thinking about, too
But that was never gonna be
You don't see, you don't see
That was never gonna be

I need a reason to go
Wish you could look at it my way
I need a reason to go
You never listen when I say

You know there's something about you
But love's not something that I do
I'm bad at letting you go
Letting you go

So hey, Walk away
It's time for better days
Hey, walk away
We were never working anyway

Hey, walk away
It's time to turn the page
Hey, walk away
We were never working anyway

(Hey, hey)
We were never working anyway
(Hey, hey)

I've been thinking about you
I've been thinking 'bout me
I can never what you
What you see in your dreams
Your dreams, your dreams
It was never gonna be

Well, I need a reason to go
This ain't the time or the right place
I need a reason to go
And you need to listen when I say

You know there's something about you
But love's not something that I do
I'm bad at letting you go
Letting you go

So hey, Walk away
It's time for better days
Hey, walk away
We were never working anyway

Hey, walk away
It's time to turn the page
Hey, walk away
We were never working anyway

(Hey)
We were never working anyway
(Hey)

So hey, walk away
It's time for better days
(Hey) Walk away
We were never working anyway

(Hey) Walk away
It's time to turn the page
(Hey, walk away)
We were never working anyway
(Hey) We were never working anyway

Hey, walk away
You know you better walk away
Hey, walk away
We were never working anyway

Hey, walk away
You know you better walk away




Hey, walk away
We were never working anyway
