Walk Away
Words and Music by James Horning
Chorus
Walk Away, That’s what you should do
Everybody has a vision, that is mine for you
Your story sounds familiar, your deeds have all been done
Walk Away ‘cause now I’m thinkin you could be the chosen one
Walk Away.
Repeat Chorus
Verse One
Don’t you go believin’ that your dreams have all been dreamt
That your wishes are all wishes that someone else has spent
The fire that was burnin’ from the moment you grabbed tight,
It is good, it is yours, it is strong and it is right, SO
Chorus
Verse Two
The bars that hold you back, those bars that keep you in
You’re holdin’ them so tightly but on you they do depend
So let them go and realize your day has just begun
I don’t care if you are black or white, rich, poor, old or young
Just…
Walk Away, That’s what you should do
Everybody has a vision, that is mine for you
Your story sounds familiar, your deeds have all been done
Walk Away ‘cause now I’m thinkin you are the chosen one
Walk Away…Walk Away…Walk Away…Walk Away
