I gave you three years of my life
You always said I'd be your wife
What happened to the days when
Life was simple (So Simple)
Everyone knows my name
I haven't changed, I'm the same girl
I was from the start
Everything's rearranged, you came
And changed it and gave me a broken heart
You don't wanna work it out, no
You wanna take the easy route
[Chorus]
You throw your hands up and walk away
When times get hard you always walk away
You get mad and say you're leavin'
Why's it so damn hard for you to talk to me?
When it's so easy for you to walk away
So here I am, driving down the street
Lookin' for a sign, when will I meet
The man of my dreams?
When will he come to me?
When will he come to me?
I'm sick of trying, I'm goin' home back
To PA where I come from
And you can stay here and spend your
Whole life running, But baby I'm
Gonna move on
You don't wanna work it out, no
You wanna take the easy route
[Chorus]
You throw your hands up and walk away
When times get hard you always walk away
You get mad and say you're leavin'
Why is it so hard for you to talk to me?
When it's so easy for you to walk away
So there I go, I'm leavin' you alone
What will you do, now all your fears
Came true
You had my heart, you had my soul
You had it all- didn't you
'Cause I'm sick of tryin' I'm goin' home
Back to Philly where I come from
And you can stay here and spend your
Whole life running, but baby it's
Time to move on
You didn't wanna work it out, no
You just wanted the easy route
[Chorus(out)]
You threw your hands up and walked away
When times got hard you always walked away
Well sorry baby but I'm leavin'
It was just too hard for you to talk to me
Now's my turn I'm gonna do the same
I'm gonna do the same
I'm gonna walk away
I'm gonna walk away
How does it feel baby?
I'm gonna walk away
You always said I'd be your wife
What happened to the days when
Life was simple (So Simple)
Everyone knows my name
I haven't changed, I'm the same girl
I was from the start
Everything's rearranged, you came
And changed it and gave me a broken heart
You don't wanna work it out, no
You wanna take the easy route
You throw your hands up and walk away
When times get hard you always walk away
You get mad and say you're leavin'
Why's it so damn hard for you to talk to me?
When it's so easy for you to walk away
Lookin' for a sign, when will I meet
The man of my dreams?
When will he come to me?
When will he come to me?
I'm sick of trying, I'm goin' home back
To PA where I come from
And you can stay here and spend your
Whole life running, But baby I'm
Gonna move on
You don't wanna work it out, no
You wanna take the easy route
You throw your hands up and walk away
When times get hard you always walk away
You get mad and say you're leavin'
Why is it so hard for you to talk to me?
When it's so easy for you to walk away
What will you do, now all your fears
Came true
You had my heart, you had my soul
You had it all- didn't you
'Cause I'm sick of tryin' I'm goin' home
Back to Philly where I come from
And you can stay here and spend your
Whole life running, but baby it's
Time to move on
You didn't wanna work it out, no
You just wanted the easy route
You threw your hands up and walked away
When times got hard you always walked away
Well sorry baby but I'm leavin'
It was just too hard for you to talk to me
Now's my turn I'm gonna do the same
I'm gonna do the same
I'm gonna walk away
I'm gonna walk away
How does it feel baby?
I'm gonna walk away

very sweet i like to listen it
I love this song, it's about someone who really just doesn't want to bother with a relationship and doesn't reciprocate anything you do for them so you have to leave em. that's my interpretation anyway
This song is probably about the same person shes singing about in ‘who knew’. That’s because it mentions ‘3 years’ at the beginning which is also mentioned in ‘who knew’ – ‘if someone said three years from now…’
about 2 people in a relationship and whenever there is a fight they avoid the problem and walk away
oh hi @ current situation. fucking loser.
this song is AMAZING!!!!
the tune is so catchy, and pinks voice has such a natural twist to it, its awesome!
I doubt that Walk Away and Who Knew are about the same person. I think Walk Away is about Carey. Cause she told in an interview (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKHNo2WNoPY) that when they argue he walks away rather than talking about it. And they've had their on-off moments. Who Knew is about a friend of hers who died of an overdose. The '3 years' thingy is just a coincidence imo.
I love Pink, she's one of the nicest women!
