Walk Away Lyrics


We use to walk in each other arms
"It was one on one," That's what you said
Now the moon is a sliver in our eye
We stumble bleeding on this broken glassThere was too much repetition
(Over and over and over again)
You know we're past the point of sane
(Over and over and over again)
And all this broken glass you left behind
Won't let you make a clean, clean
I said, "Walk away"Now we're crossing from the sacred ground
Where we once held each other, and each other's names
And the words are sparse, and we feel so profound
But babe you know all I feel, honey I feel so ashamedAh 'cause there was, there was too much repetition
Ah you know, you know, you know
You know we're past the point of sane
Ah oh
All this broken glass we left behind
It won't let us make a clean, cleanI said, "Walk away"

Ah yeah walk away
Oh no walk away
Baby, baby walk away
Ah oh
I said, "Walk away"
Walk away
Oh no walk away
Baby, baby walk awayThere was a time when we gave everything
And it was true babe, true enough to bleed
(True enough to bleed baby)
But now you feel that you've got nothing left
If there's nothing to lose babe
Ah babe, don't you know by now?
Then there's nothing to gain
Ah no walk away
Oh no, walk away
Oh baby baby, walk awayYou know, I'd still hold you if I could
It's hard not to try and change, try to change your mind
I'm a pillar of salt and I want you to understand me
'Cause honey this is the last time, it's the last timeI never look behind
Ah yeah, walk away
Ah no walk away
Baby, baby walk away
All right
Let's goAh I said, "Walk away"
Ah yeah walk away
Ah no walk away
Baby, baby walk away
Ah no I said, "Walk away"
(Don't you know we used to walk)
Come on now baby walk away
(In each others arms)I said, "Close your eyes walk away"
(Hand in hand)
Baby, baby try to listen to me I want to tell you
(That's what you said to be baby yeah)
Now walk away
(Now the moon)
Ah yeah walk away
(Is a sliver in our eyes)
Try to learn to look inside walk away
(And we stumble)
Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
(Walking on broken glass)I said "Walk away"
Come on now baby, walk away
I said, "Listen to me"
Walk away baby baby
Now I've got somethin' that I want to tell you
Walk away
Ah no, walk away
Ah baby
I said, "You've got to know by now"
Come on

The Indigo Girls are Amy Ray and Emily Saliers. They met on the playground in grammar school in Decatur, Georgia, USA, and have been playing together since high school.

Their first release in 1985 was a seven-inch single named "Crazy Game", with the B-side "Everybody's Waiting (for Someone to Come Home)". That same year, the Indigo Girls released a six-track Extended play album named "Indigo Girls", and in 1987 released their first full-length album, Strange Fire, recorded at John Keane Studio in Athens, Georgia, and including "Crazy Game". With this release, they secured the services of Russell Carter, who remains their manager to the present; they had first approached him when the EP album was released, but he told them their songs were "immature" and they were not likely to get a record deal.

They were signed to Epic Records in 1989 and won the Grammy for best contemporary folk album later that year (for their self titled release) Some of their hit songs include "Galileo," "Closer to Fine," and "Shame on You."

Aside from being musicians, Ray and Saliers are activists, constantly supporting causes like gun control, women's rights, Native American rights, environmental protection, the abolition of the death penalty, and as lesbians themselves, LGBT rights. They constantly devote their time and money to such causes, often playing benefit concerts.

Ray and Saliers both have side projects. Ray owns and founded Daemon Records, an independent label based in Decatur. She also has a career as a solo artist, and has released two albums thus far. Saliers is the part owner of Watershed, a restaurant and wine bar in Decatur.

Together, the Indigo Girls are constantly touring. Their new album, Poseidon and the Bitter Bug, was released March 24, 2009.
