Look Away Songtext
von Bill Champlin

When you called me up this morning
Told me ′bout the new love you found
I said I'm happy for you
I′m really happy for you
You found someone else
I guess I won't be coming 'round
I guess it′s over, babe
It′s really over, babe
And from what you said
I know you've gotten over me

It′ll never be
The way it used to be

So if it's gonna be this way
Don′t worry, baby
I can take the news okay


If you see me walking by
And the tears are in my eyes
Look away, baby, look away
If we meet on the street someday
And I don't know what to say
Look away, baby, baby, look away
Don′t look at me
I don't want you to see me this way

And when we both agreed as lovers
We were better off as friends
That's how it had to be
Baby, that′s how it had to be
I tell you I′m fine but sometimes I just pretend
Wish you were holding me
Wish you were holding me

I just never thought
That I would be replaced so soon
I wasn't prepared
To hear those words from you

I know I wanted to be free
Yeah, baby, this is how we wanted it to be


If you see me walking by
And the tears are in my eyes
Look away, baby, look away
If we meet on the street someday
And I don′t know what to say
Look away, baby, baby, look away
Don't look at me
I don′t want you to see me

If you see me walking by
And the tears are in my eyes
Look away, baby, look away
If we meet on the street someday
And I don't know what to say
Look away, baby, baby, look away
Don′t look at me
I don't want you to see me

If you see me walking by
And the tears are in my eyes
Look away, baby, look away
If we meet on the street someday
And I don't know what to say
Look away, baby, baby, look away
Don′t look at me
I don′t want you to see me

Don't you look at me

Let me be
Walk away

Won′t you set me free, baby
I keep walking, walking, walking on by
Walk away, baby
Walk away
Just find someone that somebody else
Baby
Look away
Look away, baby
Don't you look at me

Try to just believe
Gotta believe that you′re gone
Gotta believe that you're gone
Don′t you look at me
Look away, baby
