And love is not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring…
And love is not the easy thing…
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can’t leave behind

And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it’s a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
And for a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong

Walk on, walk on
What you got they can?t steal it
No they can?t even feel it
Walk on, walk on…
Stay safe tonight

You’re packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been
A place that has to be believed to be seen
You could have flown away
A singing bird in an open cage
Who will only fly, only fly for freedom

Walk on, walk on
What you’ve got they can’t deny it
Can?t sell it, can?t buy it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight

And I know it aches
And your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on

Home… hard to know what it is if you?ve never had one
Home… I can?t say where it is but I know I’m going home
That’s where the hurt is

I know it aches
How your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on

Leave it behind
You’ve got to leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you steal
All this you can leave behind
All that you reason
All that you sense
All that you speak
All you dress up
All that you scheme…

Walk on

If you should meet

Walk on

On down the street

Walk on

Don’t even look

Walk on

Close up the book



We don’t walk the world to see us

Like we are

We should never have even gone this far

Quickly brush away that teardrop

Walk away darling

Don’t stop

Don’t look back for me baby

Walk on



Walk on

Don’t turn around

Walk on

To higher ground

Take the world we shared together

Keep it in your heart forever

Don’t forget me

Oh baby walk on

If you ever love me baby

Walk on

Walk on
keep on walking and don’t look back
you gotta keep on down the track
the future’s yours to shape and mold
the past is past beyond control
so walk on
walk on
baby walk on
walk on
walk on

You gotta struggle up them hills
to realize the downward thrill
when night confuses where you are
then just look up at that guiding star
so walk on
walk on
baby walk on

Baby baby let me walk with you (walk on)
baby baby let me walk (walk on)

The wind may blow the sky may fall
but if you’re strong you’ll go through it all
and just as long as your aim is true
there’ll come a day your goal’s in view
so come on

Baby baby let me walk with you
baby baby let me walk

Keep on moving
keep on moving

And when you reach where you belong
you’ll find it’s where you first started from
and through it all you’re still the same
you swear it’s them not you who’s changed

So walk on walk on walk on
keep on moving
just keep on moving yeah
better keep on moving yeah

I’m having a party tonight
Only you can make it right
If I can be with you holding you tight
There won’t be more lonely nights

BRIDGE
Everywhere I turn
I see your face reminding me of a higher place
Everytime you smile, angels fly
Everytime you walk on by

CHORUS
I’m not the only feeling lonely
Everytime you walk on by
I try to say something
But it comes out as nothing
Everytime you walk on by

(Everytime you walk on by)

I keep my cool, I pretend I’m not here
Everytime you come too near
I’m such a fool cuz this love is true
And if I don’t tell you sureley someone else will

BRIDGE/CHORUS

Feeling lonely

If I ever see you again
This craziness must finally end
And I promise myself…

CHORUS x3

Everytime you walk on by

If you see me walkin’
down the street
And I start to cry
each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by
Make believe that
you don’t see the tears I
Just let me grieve in private
’cause each time I see you
I break down and cry


Walk on by
Walk on by
Walk on by


I just can’t get over losin’ you
And so if I seem broken and blue
Walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride
that’s all that I have left
So let me hide the tears and
The sadness you gave me
When you said good-bye


Walk on by
Walk on by
Walk on by

If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by

Make believe
That you don’t see the tears
Just let me grieve
In private ’cause each time I see you
I break down and cry

And walk on by
Walk on by
Walk on by

I just can’t get over losing you
And so if I seem broken and blue
Walk on by, walk on by

Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye
Walk on by
Walk on by
Walk by (don’t stop)

Go ahead and walk on by
Don’t stop just walk on by

Walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye

Walk on by
And walk on by
Go ahead and walk on by
Don’t stop just walk on by

You wonder why you got holes in your shoes
You wonder why they got more money than you
You wonder why you got nothin’ to lose
It makes no sense, don’t try to figure it out
You gotta . . . walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you’re shit outta luck
There’s just one thing to do and that’s
Walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you’re shit outta luck
There’s just one thing to do and that’s
Yeah, huh

Well, she says that she loves ya
In your mind there’s no doubt, but
You feel like a stranger
When the lights go out
As you lie there awake
You think this ain’t no gift
Don’t try to figure that weight’s too heavy to lift
You gotta . . . walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you’re shit outta luck
There’s just one thing to do and that’s
Walk on down
Walk on down
‘Cause I got no time to lose
It’s my life if I choose
Put on my walkin’ shoes

Walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you’re shit outta luck
There’s just one thing to do and that’s

Walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you’re shit outta luck
There’s just one thing to do and that’s
Walk on down
Walk on down
Walk on down
When you’re shit outta luck
There’s just one thing to do and that’s
Walk on down

sometimes i wonder if you’re still here
look in? out for anything that could fall and hit your head

fluorescent lights burn out in time dear we see world in a different light did you give up?

love ain’t supposed to be this bad,
make you cry mega ultra sad.
if i told you you?re all i ever had would you walk on me?
i wouldn’t walk on you

if i was in your shoes i wouldn’t walk all over you
so please don’t walk all over me
if i was in your shoes i wouldn’t walk all over you
so please don’t walk all over me

right now i feel like its all ending spit me out sell me cheap
you’ll never ever ever ever ever teach me to fly

in the sky its early and still mornin?
all those smiles you made wanted to cry cause you gave up

love ain’t supposed to be this bad, make you cry stupid shady sad.
if i told you you?re all i ever had would you walk on me?
i wouldn’t walk on you

if i was in your shoes i wouldn’t walk all over you
so please don’t walk all over me.
if i was in your shoes i wouldn’t walk all over you
so please don’t walk all over me

After seventeen years behind bars
And lookin back on his mistakes
He sat down and poured out his heart
When hsi son came to see him today

He spoke with a voice that trembled
Tryin to hold back the tears
He said I ain’t been much of a father
Son I wish I could turn back the years

Cause life’s like a river
And the water is deep
Cross it with care
Or you’ll end up like me
Let my mistakes
Be your steppin stones
And walk on the rocks that I stumbled on

He said son stay away from the bottle
Watch out fo the company you keep
And hold on to those you love
Cause is a man’s greatest need

The right way may not be easy
The right road ain’t always straight
Son, please don’t follow the footsteps
That lead to where I am today

Cause life’s like a river
And the water is deep
Cross it with care
Or you’ll end up like me
Let my mistakes
Be your steppin stones
And walk on the rocks that I stumbled on

Walk on the rocks that I stumbled on

Holly came from Miami, Fla
Hitchhiked her way across the USA.
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her leg and then he was she – she said:

Hey Babe, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.

Candy came from out on the island,
In the backroom she was everybodys darling,
But she never lost her head
Even when she was given head – she said

Hey Babe, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.
And the coloured girls go, doo dodoo

Little Joe never once gave it away,
Ev’rybody had to pay and pay.
A hustle here and a hustle there
New York city is no place where they said:

Hey Babe, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.

Sugar plum fairy came and hit the streets
Looking for soul food and a place to eat
Went to the Apollo, you should have seen him go go go – they said:

Hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.

Jackie is just speeding away,
Thought she was James Dean for a day
Then I guess she had to crash, Valium would have helped that bash – she said:

Hey Sugar, take a walk on the wild side,
Said hey honey, take a walk on the wild side.
And the coloured girls go, doo dodoo
