Lyrics
Verse One:
Think you know by now, that we should be moving on
Though we're still the best of friends, the romance has all gone
I've known you long enough to tell, that you're trying to pretend
But you don't want to be the one
Verse Two:
Every day I see that look, I feel it deep inside
We are trying very hard, not to hurt each other's pride
I really think that you deserve, a better life than this
But I don't want to be the one....
Chorus:
To, walk away babe, free as a bird
Time to make a brand new life out in the big wide world
Walk away babe, don't look back
We will still be best of friends, on our different tracks
Verse Three:
No point in putting on this show, when no one really gains
Don't want to be the one to leave, so we go on just the same
It's not that we don't get along, but we are not in love
Time that one of us was strong...
Chorus:
Walk away babe, free as a bird
Time to make a brand new life, out in the big wide world
Walk away babe, don't look back
We can still be best of friends, on our different tracks
Walk away.....
Instrumental break
Verse Four:
We've got to take a chance, on what becomes of us in time
But I wish you all the best, and I'm sure we'll be fine
Heaven knows that you deserve, much more than we have now
But I don't want to be the one...
Chorus:
To walk away babe, free as a bird
Time to make a brand new life, out in the big wide world
Walk away babe, don't look back
We can still be the best of friends, on our different tracks
Walk away babe, free as a bird
Time to make a brand new life, out in the big wide world
Walk away babe, please don't look back
We can still be the very best of friends, on our different tracks
Walk away.....
