Just Walk Away

There have been times in my life

More than I’d like to think

I reached out to my god

And I’ve sworn off the drink

I’ve pleaded forgiveness

And asked that my soul be saved

But here I find I’m facing

This moment of truth

The water trickles over me

Like a fountain of youth

I’m feeling better than I oughta

And it’s all because of you

I told you, I know you, I can’t hold you, I knew I shouldn’t stay

Oh lady, don’t save me, you’ll blame me, please just walk away

Don’t look over your shoulder, I’ll be okay

No matter how many times you say

That will never be me

You cannot leave your guard low

Or you it will be

Caught like a fool

Down on bended knee

Even though you don’t deserve it

At the end of the day

When least you expect it

Sometimes you get saved

Rescued from yourself

Rescued from the mess you’ve made

I told you, I know you, I can’t hold you, I knew I shouldn’t stay

Oh lady, don’t save me, you’ll blame me, please just walk away

Don’t look over your shoulder, I’ll be okay

Don’t you trust a thing like honesty

I don’t make the rules up, but the rules, they follow me

Hope you like the taste of my homily

And what it‘d have been like

If you had left with me

I told you, I know you, I can’t hold you, I knew I shouldn’t stay

Oh lady, don’t save me, you’ll blame me, please just walk away

Tu-tu-duh tu-tu-duh tu-tu-duh tu-tu-duh-duh-duh

Tu-tu-duh tu-tu-duh tu-tu-duh tu-tu-duh-duh-duh

Don’t look over your shoulder, I’ll be okay
