"Love The Way You Walk Away" lyrics
"Love The Way You Walk Away"
I've been feelin' in the way caught underfoot on a Saturday
The sun it don't mean to hurt I guess
But the bright light's harsh when your trying to rest
I know you've been working some overtime
In your granddad's kitchen tryin' to make a dime
The old joke stands, 'cause it's true I guess
That when you find what you're looking for you want it less
'Cause baby I'm on the make, in my ol' sport coat and my head it aches
I'm drinking too much tonight and it ain't right
And a brand new coat of paint on this broke down palace
Couldn't compensate for the things I never really said to make you stay
'Cause I love the way you walk away
I spent the night in an old Sedan
It was parked by the river where the oak tree stands
Try to find a station on that radio
Searchin' hard for a song that I just don't know
Some kind of personal epiphany
But all I heard was the stars as they spoke to me
In an ancient tongue, speakin' loud and true
Telling me all the ways that I'm losing you
'Cause baby I'm on the make, in my ol' sport coat and my head it aches
I'm lettin' you down tonight and it ain't right
And a brand new coat of paint on this broke down palace
Couldn't compensate for the things I never really said to make you stay
'Cause I love the way you walk away
I been feelin' hard to get
Like a dog hidin' out underneath the step
Burnin' this bridge 'cause I need the light
For to see my way through the comin' night
Guess I thought you'd always just play the game
Come a walkin' on back down the same old lane
But the grass grows high all around your door
It's a sign or a symbol for the things in store
'Cause baby I'm on the make, in my ol' sport coat and my head it aches
I'm drinkin' too much tonight and it ain't right
And a brand new coat of paint on this broke down palace
Couldn't compensate for the things I never really said to make you stay
'Cause I love the way you walk away
