James Blunt
Walk Away
[Verse 1]
The last thing I recall was a question in my head
Some things we said don't make any sense
I can make myself real small, pretend I'm somewhere else
Leave you for a moment, but there's no escape from myself

[Pre-Chorus 1]
I wake up with sunlight in my eyes
And finally as the sleep clears from my mind
And once again, I realize you still got nothing left to say
Except fall back on "I love you"

[Chorus]
Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
There's too much water on the flames
You can't break into what remains
Oh darling, walk away (Walk away)
Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
You love me, that don't make it true
Because I'll never see the proof
And we should walk away (Just walk away)

[Post-Chorus]
And we should walk away (Just walk away)

[Verse 2]
I can ask you, "How's your day?"
I can sit with practiced warmth
Then we'll lie down again in this bed of thorns
[Pre-Chorus 2]
And we cross paths like ghosts in the hallway
This beauty that I don't see, the beauty in before me
An example of a flower that's faded
We're crazy to use phrases like "I love you" (love you, love you)

[Chorus]
Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
There's too much water on the flames
You can't break into what remains
Oh darling, walk away
Just 'cause you say, just 'cause you say
You love me, that don't make it true
Because I'll never see the proof
And we should walk away (Just walk away)

[Post-Chorus]
And we should walk away (Just walk away)
And we should walk away (Just walk away)
