Walk Don't Run

This is a song about an ex partner who ran away. I told him to walk and not run so that he could think about things.

Walk Don't Run

I remember

When we were young

We were just friends

But we wanted something more

Took us a while to say go

But we got there in the end

It lasted a couple of weeks

But then you ran away

 

Thought it was going well

Till you had your doubts

You wanna leave me

But baby think about it

 

[Chorus]

Walk don’t run down

Memory lane

Photograph Avenue

Remember what we used to do

Walk don’t run from

Your past baby

Remember what you said to me?

Baby we’ll get together just wait and see

 

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Maybe we’ll get together

Baby just wait and see

 

I can’t imagine

What’s going through your head?

As you walk down

The lonely road

With your memories and thoughts

Running away proved nothing

Instead it showed me who you are

You’re a coward in love

Baby we were close but no cigar

 

You’re running away from your hopes and dreams

And you’re running away from me

You’re leaving us all behind

But baby think about it

 

[Chorus]

Walk don’t run down

Memory lane

Photograph Avenue

Remember what we used to do

Walk don’t run from

Your past baby

Remember what you said to me?

Baby we’ll get together just wait and see

 

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Maybe we’ll get together

Baby just wait and see

 

[Middle 8]

Baby

Oh I hope it’s all a phase

Why don’t you come home?

So we can talk face to face

Maybe you’ll change your mind

Looking at the photos on your wall

Maybe they’ll make you

Rise up from your fall

 

[Chorus]

Walk don’t run down

Memory lane

Photograph Avenue

Remember what we used to do

Walk don’t run from

Your past baby

Remember what you said to me?

Baby we’ll get together just wait and see

 

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Walk don’t run

So you can think about it

Walk don’t run
