I'll Walk Lyrics
We were 18, it was prom night.
We had our first big fight.
She said "Pull this car over".
I did and then I told her, "I don't know what you are crying for".
I grabbed her hand, as she reached for the door.
She said, I'll walk.
Let go of my hand.
Right now I'm hurt, and you don't understand.
So just be quiet.
And later we will talk.
Just leave, don't worry.
I'll walk.
It was a dark night, a black dress.
Driver never saw her, around the bend.
I never will forget the call, or driving to the hospital
when they said her legs still wouldn't move.
I cried, when I walked into her room.
She said, I'll walk.
Please come and hold my hand.
Right now I'm hurt, and I don't understand.
Lets just be quiet, and later we can talk.
Please stay, don't worry.
I'll walk.
I held her hand through everything.
The weeks and months of therapy.
And I held her hand and asked her, to be my bride.
She's dreamed from a little girl, to have her daddy bring her down the isle.
So from her wheelchair, she looks up to him and smiles.
And says, I'll walk.
Please hold my hand.
I know that this will hurt, I know you understand.
Please daddy don't cry.
This is already hard.
Let's go, don't worry.
I'll walk.
We had our first big fight.
She said "Pull this car over".
I did and then I told her, "I don't know what you are crying for".
I grabbed her hand, as she reached for the door.

Is this a true story? I mean, did Bucky really marry a woman who couldn't walk? Or is this just a story?
This makes me cry EVERYTIME i hear it...it really hits home with me because my girlfriend's in a wheelchair...only...therapy won't help her =[ This is just...such an amazing song. I love it
i'm not religious, but i always thought her continually saying "i'll walk" was a reference to "walking" once she gets to heaven.... or with jesus... or something along those lines. that's where i always thought the song was headed, and was surprised the first time i heard it and it didn't end with something along those lines.
This song is so sad :( I love it though, I love Bucky Covington's voice!
the very first time i heard this song i only caught bits and pieces and it was very depressing but then the next time i heard it wit me cuz and it just hit me... i mean im not very emotional but it made me cry... honestly
This is the only song that will make me cry like a baby. It just hits me so hard, and I don't even like country music. My grandpa became paraplegic in '06, and it's been really difficult, but there's hope. Just like with the girl in the song.
