Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If you see me walking down the streets
And I start to cry each time we meet
[Verse 2]
Walk on by, ah, walk on by and make me believe
That I can't see the tears that let me breathe
In private, 'cause each time I see you
I just wanna cry, walk on by, walk on by, walk on by
[Verse 3]
I just can't get over losing you
And so if I seem so broke in pieces
[Verse 4]
Walk on by, ah, walk on by and foolish pride
If I can't see the tears that let me hide
All the tears and the sadness you gave me when you said goodbye
Walk on by, walk on by, walk on by
Just go for a stroll in the trees
[Verse 5]
Walk on by, ah, walk on by and make me believe
That I can't see the tears that let me breathe
In private, 'cause each time I see you
I just wanna cry, walk on by, walk on by, walk on by
[Verse 6]
Yeah you really gonna go, you really gotta go
Ah, you really gonna go, you really gotta go
You you really gonna go, you really gotta go
Ah, you really gonna go, gotta go
