PRETTY MAIDS LYRICS
"Walk Away" (1994 Single)
1. Walk Away 2. When It All Comes Down
1. Walk Away
Lyrics & music by: Atkins/Hammer
Here we are standing at a crossroads baby
Can't seem to make a move
Don't know which way to choose
We used to fly into the heavens
On the wings of an angel
An everlasting fire
An eternal cruise
Those were the good times
Stolen moments underneath a full moon rising
We both laid down with love
And woke up with lies
Gonna give it one more try
Here we are picking up the pieces
Trying to get this puzzle together
We need a cure for this disease
A heeling hand
Though our love has come to a dead end street
And we're stuck where happiness
And heartache meet
[Chorus:]
You see we can't give it up
It's not too late
You need a little love
Don't hesitate
I swear I'll give it all I've got
To make you stay
So don't you walk away
Once a time and place
There was a bond between us
Something sacred something innocent
We need a star that doesn't fade
And wherever it might lead us
We gotta follow in our hearts direction
I got a feeling girl
We're gonna crash into love
How can you back down baby
When love is all around
And it's here to stay
I'll be determined to defend
A tower of strength
Though the best laid plans
Sometimes go astray
There's a guarantee that love will find a way
[Chorus]
A heart needs love
Like the desert needs the rain
And I need you girl
Each and every day
We'll do the things babe
That other fantasies
Women we just need a little confidence
In each other
2. When It All Comes Down
Lyrics & music by: Atkins/Hammer
I don´t need your pity
Misbelief or sympathy
I don´t need no doctor, shrink
Or psychotherapy
Who are you to say you´re sorry
If I were to die
Who are you to complain
When you´ve got your piece of the pie
Out of the closet, out of your hole
Out of your hard earned place
But don´t you push your luck
I´ll take that big white grin
Straight off your face
Look at all those smiling faces
Preaching on TV
I don´t need their politics
To stir my fantasies
To watch the late night news
It scares me to the bone
When I read the papers
I feel naked and alone
Think you´ll believe it
Where the evil flowers grow
With Jesus, Mary
And the holy Ghost
When it all comes down
Is there anything that justifies
The things we do
When it all comes down
There´s a reason for the pain
We must be goin´ through
Same greasy dirty young man
Traveling to the east
When a bird comes flying
Further dreams can be released
Same little flashes
Waving banners cross your line
When at first you walk with me
You´ll then set free the mind
I see my future
Being washed up on the shore
I feel I´ve been through this
I´ve seen it all before
