Walk Away
Kitchell Sonya Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause your eyes say the words
Your mouth can't convey
Is it crazy to doubt this?
Or do I head the voice and just walk away
Walk away
Walk away
It's the same old story
Though the characters change
The roles stay the same
I am ready for love's glory
There'll be no tragedy under my name
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away
Could I'd take you into my arms for a while
Forgive and forget at the sight of your smile
Be there for you when I should run a mile
And that's just the problem and just the problem
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away

Line by Line Meaning
How do you feel about this?
I can see in your eyes that you feel something about this situation
'Cause your eyes say the words
Your eyes are communicating something to me
Your mouth can't convey
But you're not expressing it verbally
Is it crazy to doubt this?
I'm not sure if I should trust this situation
Or do I head the voice and just walk away
Maybe I should listen to my instincts and leave
Walk away
I need to remove myself from this situation
Walk away
I can't stay here any longer
Walk away
I need to put distance between us
It's the same old story
This keeps happening to me
Though the characters change
But the people involved are different each time
The roles stay the same
But the situation follows the same pattern
I am ready for love's glory
I'm open to finding true love
There'll be no tragedy under my name
I won't let myself get hurt again
Could I'd take you into my arms for a while
I wish I could hold you close
Forgive and forget at the sight of your smile
If you apologized, I would forgive you and move on
Be there for you when I should run a mile
Even when it's hard, I want to support you
And that's just the problem and just the problem
But the issue is that I can't keep putting myself in this situation
Walk away
I have to leave before things get worse
Walk away
It's time for me to go
Walk away
I need to put my own well-being first
