Walking Away Lyrics

Walking Away

Pour a glass bourbon and we celebrate tonight

C minus for my friend here, it's the only beer he likes

I'm not much for conversation but with a whiskey in my hand

See an idiot explaining things that he barely understands

There's a junkie on the corner playing his guitar

And a con man in the parking lot, sleeping in his car

And the sun shines on the wicked and the righteous just the same

But the same goes for the rain, and the same goes for the pain

For every mile I walk, I'm getting farther away

And every step I take gets easier,

Walking Away

Walking Away

Now the wolves are at the doorstep and the daylights fading fast

The laughter's all but over and the good times never last

The wind is shrieking something fierce so try to get your sleep

And dream of someplace better, and the secrets that you keep

For every mile I walk, I'm getting farther away

And every step I take gets easier,

Walking Away

Walking Away

The bags are in the hallway and the cab is on the way

So say what you wanted to say

I'm finally getting out and I'm never coming back

So turn out the lights, lock up the doors

I'm walking away

Walking Away

Walking Away

For every mile I walk, I'm getting farther away

And every step I take gets easier,

Walking Away

Walking Away

Walking Away
