Go ahead and walk away from me I can see what's going down Dear boy, before you go You had better hear me out I've seen her face, I know her name Comin' on to deal her drug Like a summer field in flame She's gonna light you up But you think you're in love I would give you every tear But your destiny holds true If I cried a lifetime still This river would not save you No, it would not save you Something in you rages on You know I don't believe the lies Son, you're bound to prove me wrong But I see doubt there in your eyes I would give you every tear But your destiny holds true If I cried a lifetime Still this river would not save you No, it would not save you I've been in the city for forty days I recognize the devil behind that pretty face of hers There's no mistaking this road you're taking Will only break you down There's nothing more that I can say You're gonna go and prove me wrong anyway Remember it's you that walked away I will not compromise Virgin Mother, light the way All my weary breath is flown I ran out of time to weep A thousand, thousand sighs ago Go ahead and walk away from here
