Walk Away

I knew everything was going to change

When I met you for the first time

We’d never even spoken before

But I couldn’t get you off my mind

I was captivated when I saw you

You’d taken over my every thought

But slowly you moved down from there

And filled every place within my heart

But I’d made a promise to another

And you’d made that promise too

I knew that I needed to stay faithful

Those vows were supposed to be true

My mind said to walk away

That I should just get up and go

But I couldn’t convince my heart

It just kept telling me no

My mind said to walk away

And that I needed to stay strong

I should just leave you alone

Because these feelings were so wrong

My mind said to walk away

But there was nothing I could do

The time to stop was in the past

I had fallen in love with you

You know that I tried more than once

To just get up and walk away

Because I knew it all was wrong

Something about you made me stay

Every day I wanted to kiss you

I wanted to do that and so much more

But I knew that could never happen

And things should stay like they were before

But in the end I was just too weak

And I wanted you way too much

I surrendered to my feelings

And I just had to feel your touch

My mind said to walk away

That I should just get up and go

But I couldn’t convince my heart

It just kept telling me no

My mind said to walk away

And that I needed to stay strong

I should just leave you alone

Because these feelings were so wrong

My mind said to walk away

But there was nothing I could do

The time to stop was in the past

I had fallen in love with you

To not act on my feelings

Would take a stronger man than I

You took over my whole life

I just couldn’t tell you goodbye

My mind said to walk away

That I should just get up and go

But I couldn’t convince my heart

It just kept telling me no

My mind said to walk away

And that I needed to stay strong

I should just leave you alone

Because these feelings were so wrong

My mind said to walk away

But there was nothing I could do

The time to stop was in the past

I had fallen in love with you

My mind said to walk away

That I should just get up and go

But I couldn’t convince my heart

It just kept telling me no

My mind said to walk away

And that I needed to stay strong

I should just leave you alone

Because these feelings were so wrong

My mind said to walk away

But there was nothing I could do

The time to stop was in the past

I had fallen in love with you

My mind said to walk away…

But I’m so glad that I stayed
