I Walk Away - Crowded House

You came

Out of this world to me

My life

Parted like the Red Sea

We flowed

Easy between the rocks and stones

Never seemed to stop us

The years

Ended in confusion

Don’t ask me I don’t know what happened

But I am

A man with a mission

Must be the devil I don’t know

It’s hard to let go

Of all that we know

As I walk away from you

Hurled from my home

Into the unknown

As I walk away from you

Reveal whatever you desire

To you it may be death defying

Black day

In the coldness of winter

Black words

Slipping off my tongue

I say forget it — it’s over

As a dark cloud covered up the sun

It’s hard to let go

Of all that we know

As I walk away from you

The sun always sets

With room for regrets

As I walk away from you

Give it to me

Give it to me

Your inspiration

Give to receive

Find all we need

As I walk away

Just a slave to ambition

Tension your permanent condition

So much you’ve always wanted

Too much given' you a sore head
