Anyway, this is an amazing song. Great rhythm, arrangement, and Tom's inimitable voice, putting into words and song that feeling that you get when you've screwed up - you just want to walk away, leave it all behind you and start over again. If only it was that easy.
This song was written by Tom Waits and Kathleen Waits-Brennan, not by Bill Janovitz and Chris Colbourn - they may have written a song called "Walk Away" but this isn't it. See http://www.tomwaitsfan.com/tom%20waits%20library/www.tomwaitslibrary.com/lyrics/orphans-brawlers/walkaway.html
