I feel her slipping away
 
 I've done the best that I can
 
 There's nothing more left to say,
 
 Well, it's over.
 
 I call her friend for advice
 
 She says, "I'm sorry"
 
 I ask what she means,
 
 She says she told her we broke up.
 
  
  Why am I the last to know my fate?
 
 I take a deep breath and call her,
 
 I can no longer wait.
 
 But it goes straight to message
 
 And I'm deep in the zone,
 
 'cause it's 12:45 and you said you were home.
  
 
 I don't know what you'd hide from me
 
 All those times you said you'd die for me.
  
 
 Don't turn your back on me
 
 Don't go walking away
 
 Maybe you and I weren't meant to me
 
 But don't go walking away.
  
 
 I'll make it easy for you
 
 And say the things that you can't
 
 I know we're growing apart but it's alright.
 
 Told you that this day would come
 
 And you'd go off on your own
 
 So don't you get second thoughts
 
 'Cause the deal's done.
 
 I try to be the bigger man and let go
 
 But suddenly I start to wonder if there's more to the story.
 
 It doesn't matter either way in the end
 
 Because you'll fall in love again
 
 And there were others before me.
 
 Still it's so hard to say goodbye
 
 But it's even worse to live a lie.
  
 
 Don't turn your back on me
 
 Don't go walking away
 
 Maybe you and I weren't meant to me
 
 But don't go walking away.
 
 Don't turn your back on me
 
 Don't go walking away
 
 Maybe you and I weren't meant to me
 
 But don't go walking away.
 
 Don't go walking away.
 
 Don't go walking away.
