[Verse 1]

I don't know why she's with me

I only brought her trouble since the day she met me

If I was her, by now I would have left me

I would have walked away, but now I've broken away

Somehow instead she forgave me

She said, "A woman's got to do what she's got to"

Even if it means she denied herself the truth

'Cause when you're in too deep, you wake up when it's too late

You've fallen in love in the worst way

And if you don't go now, then you'll stay

'Cause I'll never let you leave, never let you breathe

'Cause if you're looking for heaven, baby, it sure as hell ain't me

[Chorus]

So walk away (Walk away)

Walk away, oh

Save yourself from the heartache, oh

Go now before it's too late

So walk away (Walk away)

Walk away, oh

Save yourself from the heartache, oh

Go now before it's too late

But still she stays

[Verse 2]

She's standing in the heart of darkness

Saying I know you got a soul even though you're heartless

How could any woman in her mind be so blind to find something this safe?

Instead of walking with me, she should have (Walked away)

[Verse 3]

She finds color in the darkest places

She finds beauty in the saddest of faces

For such a clued-in, headstrong city girl

Could've had the world, but she's fallen in love in the worst way

And if you don't go now, then you'll stay

'Cause I'll never let you leave, never let you breathe

'Cause if you're looking for heaven, baby, it sure as hell ain't me

[Chorus]

So walk away (Walk away)

Walk away, oh

Save yourself from the heartache, oh

Go now before it's too late

So walk away (Walk away)

Walk away, oh

Save yourself from the heartache, oh

Go now before it's too late

But still she stays (Oh, yeah)

But still she stays (Oh, yeah)

[Bridge]

I don't know why she's with me

I only brought her trouble since the day she met me

If I was her, by now I would have left me

I would have walked away

But you've fallen in love in the worst way

And if you don't go now, then you'll stay

'Cause I'll never let you leave, never let you breathe

'Cause if you're looking for heaven, baby, it sure as hell ain't me

[Chorus]

So walk away (Walk away)

Walk away, oh

Save yourself from the heartache, oh

Go now before it's too late

So walk away (Walk away)

Walk away, oh

Save yourself from the heartache, oh

Go now before it's too late

But still she stays (Yeah)

[Outro]

But still she stays, hey

I'm saying walk away

Yeah

I'm saying walk away

Save yourself from the heartache

Go now before it's too late

But still she stays

Still she stays

Yeah, she stays

She stays
