How Could You Just Walk Away? Songtext
von Betty Wright

A promise at night that we′d be alright
How could you just walk away?
A kiss in the dark you stole my heart
How could you just walk away?

Maybe, promises don't mean a thing in your book
But for me to give my heart to you, uh
You′ve no idea what it took
You look so strange at me
When I'm trynna make you see where we're headed
To you it′s just been fun
Now it′s over and done like I dreaded
Remember I said it

Though it was hard I let down my guard
How could you just walk away?
From a love that would last
Baby all that I ask is
How could you just walk away?


Maybe you have fears that I
Could even try to understand
(I don't understand)
But you can share that fear with me
And we can fight ′em I know we can
If someone broke your heart before
It's easy to turn cold
Just don′t you let it blur your vision
'Cause here′s a heart of gold
For you to have and to hold

Fear not baby
I'll give ya what I got, baby
Baby just don't walk away
We got it goin′ on and our love is still strong
Boy don′t you dare walk away

What made you change your mind
What made you change your mind leave me behind
Oh, I don't think you′re thinking straight
Stop it before it's too late
A better love a better lover you′ll never find

Though it's hard I
I let down my guard I
Oh, honey just don′t walk away
Ooh, won't you stay baby
There's a better way baby
Baby just don′t walk away


Ooh, honey, honey
Honey, honey, honey
Don′t you dare walk away
Boy, if you care
Uh, mm
Don't you dare
Don′t baby don't, don′t you dare walk away

What about your promise, baby
How could you just walk away?
What about my kisses honey

How could you dare walk away
