Jewel - Walk Away lyrics

rate me

Don抰 say I love you, I won抰 say that I care

I抣l pretend I never kissed you, or held you, or worshipped you

I swear

I抣l live in denial for as long as I live

Cuz *what I need baby, this love just can抰 give

We have to walk away

We have to walk away

I抣l try not to sing, you抣l try not to talk with those lips

We抣l forget all the sweet memories, and now we'll just go with what

is

Cuz this love ain抰 loving, and I don抰 know why

But anything that stands so still can抰 be alive

We have to walk away

We have to walk away

[refrain]

But there were times our love was, so sweet

And it抯 *memory that makes me want to make it last

But you can抰 make love work, anymore than you can make it leave

And it抯 then you gotta leave it yourself

[refrain2]

Cuz when love ain抰 loving but still ain抰 leaving

It抯 then you gotta leave it yourself

Now jealousy can ride your heart like a sick kind of pony

And envy抯 just the same

And your loneliness can consume you no matter how much love you had

And when it all boils down, baby, there抯 no other way

And I *care much more than to make you stay

We have to walk away

We have to walk away

So at night, when darkness fills me,

I抣l pretend you never spoke my name

When I抦 sitting home that lonely,

I抣l pretend you抮e home and lonely, oh just the same

And I抣l pretend this sorrow, this sorrow will pass

And I抣l try to pretend that this loneliness won抰 last

And that I抣l walk away

yeah, yeah, yeah

refrain

repeat

refrain2

repeat

So don抰 say

So don抰 say I love you

I won抰 say that I care
