I Will Dance (When I Walk Away)

In our cold and empty house I've lingered now for far too long

I vainly held a rosary to pray you'd stay with me awhile

But nothing seems to keep me here the way it used to do before

This time it's me that's leaving you, I'll never turn around

'Cause when the laughter's gone

I know I must be moving on

And I will dance when I walk away

Oh, I'm gonna sing, I won't beg or pray

Yeah, I will dance when I walk away

Oh, I'm gonna sing, I won't beg or pray, yeah, no more

I'm standing at the crossroads now, the fields of opportunity

I'm ready to go anywhere I'm full of hope and full of fear

And bridges back have all been burned

And freedom has been duly earned

I remember why I've gone, remember where I'm coming from

Oh, when the laughter's gone

Ooh, I know I must be moving on

And I will dance when I walk away

Oh, I'm gonna sing, I won't beg or pray

Yeah, I will dance when I walk away

Oh, I'm gonna sing, I won't beg or pray, yeah, oh

And now I leave my mask with you

(The part) The part I played, I never knew

(Tonight) Tonight, you're alone

And I will dance when I walk away

Oh, I'm gonna sing, I won't beg or pray

I will dance when I walk away

Oh, I'm gonna sing, I won't beg or pray

And I will dance when I walk away

Oh, I'm gonna sing, I won't beg or pray

Yeah, I will dance when I walk away

Oh, I'm gonna sing, I won't beg or pray, yeah

Yeah, oh, no, no, no, no, no (I will dance when I walk away)

(Oh, I'm gonna sing, I won't beg or pray)

No, I will dance when I walk away

Oh, I'm gonna sing, I won't beg or pray, yeah, no more

No more, no, no, no

Oh, this is not a home for me, ooh
