Walking Away

Lifehouse · Lifehouse [2005]

The sun goes down

As the city lights

Pave their way

Through the darkest night



Rain drops fall

As an old man cries

Never thought

To ever think twice



Of all he had

Of all he lost

A selfish life

I guess comes with the cost



Hey, remember me?

I remember you walking away

Hey, remember me?

I remember you walking away



Same old street

Just a different name

Same old house

Just the family's changed



Picket fence

The windows stained

Freedom spells

By a man in chains



The silence

Is all we have to give and

The memories of a life

I wished we lived



Hey, remember me?

I remember you walking away

Hey, remember me?

I remember you walking away



From all that you made

That you lost, or threw away

Trade it in for a brand new life

But I can't, can't let go, can't turn around

Hold my head high and walk away



Hey, remember me?

I remember you walking away

Hey, remember me?

I remember you walking away
