I Saw You Walk Away (Denis Jones)

You’re not alone
I’m not alone
Maybe we’re together
Said we’d stay together through any kind of weather
I’ve seen the rain comin' down
And the snow fall on your eyes
I’ve seen the sun pour in shapes through your window a thousand times
You see life in moments
I know I’ve got nowhere to hide
But I can see your face in mine
And you’ll be comin' back
For the first time it feels real
Since the day I saw you walk away
From my head down to my shoulders
It feels numb
For the first time I can feel
How it felt to watch you walk away
From the ground up to my shoulders
It feels numb
If I don’t crucify myself somebody will (oooooh)
If I don’t do this thing myself nobody will (oooooh)
How could you say that I don’t wanna live--I wanna live (oooooh)
Time that you waste turns into memories
And they fade
Fade away
Now I’m alone
There’s not a soul
No one to remind me
Tell me you will find me, put this all behind me
It’s not a feeling I’ve known
Or one that I could find
If I could find you if only to tell you I’m losing my mind
You see life in moments
I know I could run out of time
I can see your face in mine
And it’s beautiful
For the first time it feels real
Since the day I saw you walk away
From my head down to my shoulders
It feels numb
For the first time I can feel
How it felt to watch you walk away
From the ground up to my shoulders
It feels numb
If I don’t crucify myself somebody will (oooooh)
If I don’t do this thing myself nobody will (oooooh)
How could you say that I don’t wanna live--I wanna live (oooooh)
The time that you waste turns into memories
And they fade
Fade away
