From the recording Periscope Heart
Lyrics
I heard you talkin’
Heard what you said
I saw you laughing
When I turned my head
So I’ll keep walkin’
I’ll just keep walkin’, walkin’ away.
I won’t be waitin’
For you to call
I won’t be waiting
For you at all.
I’ll just keep walkin’
‘Cause there’s nothing left to say.
CHORUS:
Don’t bury me ‘neath an old willow tree
He wouldn’t care anyway
I’ve got love to give
And I want to live
As soon as these tears go away....
(spoken) and they will....
Now listen sister
Hear what I say
If he don’t love you
Just call it a day
And start walking
That’s right, keep walkin’....walkin’ away.
Instrumental Bridge
CHORUS:
You hear song after song
How he done her wrong
And she cried, she cried every night
Well I lived those lines
Too many times
This time, I’m getting it right. (spoken) Oh yeah...
I won’t be waitin’
For you to call....anymore
I won’t be waiting
For you at all. What for?
I’ll just keep walkin’
Keep walkin’...walkin’ away.
Tag:
I’ll just keep walkin’
Keep walkin’...towards a brighter day.
