[Verse 1]
If you've heard all they got to say
You looked but turned away
Just walk away, walk away
If you've said all you got to say
Now the words just slip away
[Chorus]
Just walk away, walk away, walk away
That's what they say, what they say, what they say
You gotta walk away
[Verse 2]
If you've played all the games they play
You played them yesterday
Just walk away, walk away
If you've been, where they want to go
Seen all they got to show
[Chorus]
Just walk away, walk away, walk away
That's what they say, what they say, what they say
You gotta walk away
[Bridge]
And now you must believe me
You never lose your dreams
So now you must believe me
We never lose our dreams
[Verse 3]
If you've proved all there is to prove
Got nothing left to lose
Just walk away, walk away
If you've done, all there is to do
There ain't nothing left for you
[Outro]
Just walk away, walk away, walk away
That's what they say, what they say, what they say
Walk away, walk away, walk away
That's what they say, what they say, what they say
You gotta walk away
