Lyrics Phyllis Hyman – Walk Away

As I’m looking at you
Do we hold on or say that we’re through
What should we do
When pride seems to get in our way
And we wish love was like yesterday
Through love and through tears
Sacrificing those years
And one day two people turn and walk away
Mmmm…
Tell me
How did we come to this place
Where did love go
‘Cause we once had a taste
All those magical nights
Lovers and friends
Until we’re hurting each other again
It’s no way to end
And walk away
When pride seems to get in our way
And we wish love was like yesterday
Through love and through tears
Watching all of those years
End in a day when two people walk away
Oh baby
How can I say goodbye when there’s still some love deep inside
And together we could make it right

I prayed he’d be the first to say
Hoping that the other might stay
And to turn and walk away
There’s somebody here who loves you
Don’t you turn around and walk away
Oh baby
Through love and through tears
Watching all of those years
You thought you’d never walk away
Oh baby
Through love and through tears
Watching all of those years
I thought you’d never walk away
Ooh hoo…
To turn and walk away
(Who’s gonna love me baby like yesterday)
Who’s gonna love me
When you go
Who’s gonna hold me all night long whoa
Don’t walk away
Ooh
Please won’t you stay
