Artist/Band: Loretta Lynn
Lyrics for Song: I Walked Away From The Wreck
Lyrics for Album: Alone With You [1972]



I walked away from the wreck of our love affair

And no one knew how I was hurt because I lie

I walked away from the wreck but it broke my heart

And I'm off myself and broken inside.



And when I see you with her I still wanna scream

It's like a bad, bad dream that never seems to end

I walked away from the wreck of our love affair

But I'll never never be the same again.



--- Instrumental ---



I saw the danger ahead but I paid no mind

For it seemed such harmless fun at the start

Too fight the crowd, too much wine, too much playing round

Then came the crash and my world fell apart.



And when I see you with her I still wanna scream

It's like a bad, bad dream that never seems to end

I walked away from the wreck of our love affair

But I'll never never be the same again...
