I want to walk away
|
Like Judas from the table.
|
Turn my back
|
And walk away.
|
|
I want to close my eyes
|
Like that novice at the altar.
|
Bow my head
|
And close my eyes.
|
|
Sorrow took Love's splintered hands
|
And waltzed her 'cross a painted floor.
|
Whispered softly in her ear,
|
"let's get outta here".
|
|
I'm going to breathe the air
|
That my children will be breathing.
|
Breathe them out
|
And breathe them in again.
|
|
I'm going to close my eyes
|
And walk away.
|
Turn my back
|
Bow my head
|
And close my eyes.
