Walking Away

The sun goes down
As the city lights
Pave their way through the darkest night
Raindrops fall
As an old man cries
Never thought to ever think twice

Of all he had
Of all he lost
A selfish life
I guess comes with the cost

Hey
Remember me
I remember you walking away

Hey
Remember me
I remember you walking away

The same old streets
Just a different name
Same old house
Just the family's changed
Picket fence
The windows stained
Freedom spelled
By a man in chains

Silence is all we have to give
And the memories of a life
I wish we'd lived

Hey
Remember me
I remember you walking away

Hey
Remember me
I remember you walking away

From all that you made
That you lost
Or threw away
Traded in for a brand new life
But I can't
Can't let go
Can't turn around
Hold my head high and walk away

Hey
Remember me
I remember you walking away

Hey
Remember me
I remember you walking away
