I Just Walked Away
Love Unspoken: Walking Away from Attachment
Lyrics
I walked out of your apartment
I physically departed from your place
I left you sleeping on your bed
You were asleep in your bed when I left
I won't have to look back over my shoulder
I won't dwell on the past, but I didn't look back
But I did not turn my head
I didn't turn around despite leaving
We had a good arrangement, yes, we did
We had an agreeable relationship
But now I felt the need to move
I felt the need for a change or to move on
But things had not worked out like I planned
Things didn't go as I hoped or planned
'Cause I've been come attached to you
I became emotionally attached to you
There was no way to tell you, baby
I couldn't communicate everything to you
All the things I had to say
There were things I needed to express
So I just walked away
So I chose to leave without saying
And mistin' rain had started falling
It started raining heavily
The kind that chills you to the bone
A type of rain that's chilling
And I had a soulful feeling
I had a deep, emotional feeling
But it did not stay too long
But it didn't last very long
Oh, I knew I had it coming
I anticipated consequences for my actions
But I believe it'd come and gone
But I thought it would pass
And this lonesome feeling inside me, oh Lord
A feeling of loneliness overwhelmed me
Makes me know I stayed too long
Realizing I stayed too long in the situation
There was no way to tell you, baby
I couldn't convey my thoughts to you
All the things I wanted to say
There were things I wished to communicate
So I just walked away
So I departed without explanation
I left you baby, uhu, I hated to go
Leaving you was difficult for me
But I just could not explain
I couldn't articulate my feelings
The way I felt about it
How I felt was hard to express
Uhu baby, I left you
I left you, even though it was tough
I hated to leave you
Regretting departing while you slept
Sleeping on your bed
You were in need of me at that moment
When you needed me most
I left when you needed me the most
Uh, I left you
I departed despite your need
A mistin' rain was falling
Rain continued to fall heavily
The kind that chills you
This rain is the kind that chills deeply
When you need somebody
When one desires someone beside them
To lay beside you
To be there for comfort
And there's a time
I chose a specific time to depart
That I picked to leave you and I hated to go
Leaving was difficult for me
But it just couldn't tell you
I couldn't express my feelings clearly
The way I felt about the situation
About the situation, I couldn't articulate well
Uhu baby, I want it so bad to find some way
I wished desperately to communicate
Of just coming out and telling you
I wanted to express my feelings openly
That I did not want to love you so much
That I didn't intend to love you this much
Oh, but I just couldn't, so I just walked away
But I couldn't, so I departed silently
