Don't Walk Away
Mike Herrera Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I need the comfort,
That's in your arms,
Squeeze and hold me tight, and keep me warm
I need the passion,
That's in your heart,
Say you'll never leave and be apart

So don't walk away,
Don't turn your back,
If you leave today,
My whole world would turn black,
So don't walk away,
Don't change your mind,
It's time you took the chance,
And put your hand in mine,
So don't walk away

I need the glow of,
Your darling face
Accept this crown of love,
And live in grace
I need the colors,
Painted in your mind
Your beauty and your brilliance,
So hard to find

So don't walk away,
Don't turn your back,
If you leave today,
My whole world would turn black,
So don't walk away,
Don't change your mind,
It's time you took the chance,
And put your hand in mine,

You are my angel,
Please don't be afraid
You are my saving grace,
My hearts first aid
So don't walk away,
So don't walk away

So don't walk away,
Don't turn your back,
If you leave today,
My whole world would turn black,
Don't walk away,
Don't change your mind,
It's time you took the chance,
And put your hand in mine,
So don't walk away




Don't walk away
So don't walk away

Simply a beautiful song. I used to go to warped tour every year. I've always been a fan. But I've grown up, married, kids, house... Sometimes I want to rock out and other times it's sweet to see that the bands I loved have grown up too. Keep being you. What a beautiful family. Thank you.

I've been a huge fan for 20 years. Just flipped on Fixer Upper tonight and said "That looks like Mike Herrera!" Couldn't believe it. Congrats on the house and the beautiful family! And thanks for so many great songs over the years. This has always been one of my favorites.
