Then She Walked Away Lyrics

Then she walked away
Quietly so afraid
smiling but no doubt
Crying her heart out
She really just wants to stay

Then she walked away
Leading her own parade
nobody's cheering
The voices she's hearing
are empty remarks she made

How was she to know that
it could come to this.
sorry miss, they forgot to tell you
it was just a game.
just a sad illusion
Now you're on your own
really on your own.
and still a long way home

Then she walked away
Quietly so afraid
smiling but no doubt
Crying her heart out
She really just wants to stay

How's she ever gonna face it
after this emptiness
got a feeling like she don't exist
who were you expecting
Now you're on your own
really on your own
it's still a long way home.

now you're on your own
really on your own
It's still a long way home

Then she walked away
quietly so afraid
smiling but no doubt
crying her heart out
she really just wants to stay

Then she walked away
Leading her own parade
nobody's cheering
The voices she's hearing
are empty remarks she mad

Then she walked away
Quietly so afraid
smiling but no doubt
Crying her heart out
She really just wants to stay

Then she walked away
Leading her own parade
nobody's cheering
The voices she's hearing 
are empty remarks she made

How was she to know that 
it could come to this.
sorry miss, they forgot to tell you
it was just a game.
just  a sad illusion
Now you're on your own
really on your own.
and still a long way home

Then she walked away
Quietly so afraid
smiling but no doubt
Crying her heart out
She really just wants to stay

How's she ever gonna face it
after this emptiness
got a feeling like she don't exist
who were you expecting
Now you're on your own
really on your own
it's still a long way home.

now you're on your own
really on your own
It's still a long way home

Then she walked away 
quietly so afraid
smiling but no doubt
crying her heart out
she really just wants to stay

Then she walked away
Leading her own parade
nobody's cheering
The voices she's hearing 
are empty remarks she mad

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
