Walk Away Lyrics by Eric Clapton

August

1986

[Verse]
You leave a trail of tears wherever you go
One of us will hold you, the other one won't
But I could never share your love or leave it behind
Break his heart, not mine

[Verse]
Can you remember tender moments we shared?
How could this true affection vanish into thin air?
He's not worth the trouble, baby, he's just a waste of your time
Oh, break his heart, not mine

[Pre-Chorus]
But don't you walk away
You know you're going to miss me
Don't you walk away, walk away
You're going to miss me

[Chorus]
You're going to miss my love
So don't you walk away
Don't you walk away, walk away
Don't you walk away, walk away

[Bridge]
So I'll be waiting in the back room
Baby, when you kiss him goodbye
Oh, break his heart, not mine

[Pre-Chorus]

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Don't you walk away, walk away
Don't you walk away
You're going to miss my love
Don't you walk away, walk away
