Walk Away Renée

The Left Banke

And when I see the sign
That points one way;
The lot we used to
Pass by every day --

Just walk away Renée --
You won't see me follow you back home.
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same,
You're not to blame.

From deep inside the tears
That I'm forced to cry,
From deep inside the pain
That I chose to hide --

Just walk away Renée --
You won't see me follow you back home.
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes,
For me it cries.

* * * * *

Just walk away Renée --
You won't see me follow you back home.
Now as the rain beats down upon my weary eyes,
For me it cries.

Your name and mine
Inside a heart upon a wall,
Still finds the way to haunt me
Though they're so small --

Just walk away Renée --
You won't see me follow you back home.
The empty sidewalks on my block are not the same,
You're not to blame.
