Letters from the 9th Ward / Walk Away Rene

And when I see the sign that points one way A lot I used to pass by every day Just walk away Rene You won't see me follow you back home The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same You're not to blame Your name and mine inside a heart upon a wall Still finds a way to haunt me, though they're so small Just walk away Rene You won't see me follow you back home Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes For me, it cries From deep inside, the tears that I'm forced to hide From deep inside, the tears that I'm forced to cry Just walk away Rene You won't see me follow you back home The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same You're not to blame
