I swapped my innocence for pride
  Crushed the end within my stride   
Said I´m strong now
I know that I´m a leaver,
  I love the sound of you walking away,
you walking away
  Mascara bleeds a blackened tear oh
  And I am cold,   Yes I´m cold
But not as cold as you are
 I love the sound of you walking away,
you walking away
   I love the sound of you walking away,
walking away yeah
   Why don´t you walk away?
  Why don´t you walk away?
  Why don´t you walk away?
No buildings will fall down
Why don´t you walk away?
 No quake will split the ground
Why don´t you walk away?
 The sun won´t swallow the sky
Why don´t you walk away?
Statues will not cry
Don't you walk away?
  Why don´t you walk away?
Why don´t you walk away?
Why don´t you walk away?
   I cannot turn to see those eyes
As apologies may rise
 I must be strong
and stay an unbeliever
 And love the sound of you walking away,
you walking away.
 Mascara bleeds into my eye oh
And I´m not cold
   I am old
At least as old as you are
And as you walk away
And as you walk away
And as you walk away
My headstone crumbles down
As you walk away
The Hollywood wind´s a howl
As you walk away
The Kremlin´s falling
As you walk away Radio four is static
    As you walk away
Oh As you walk away
Oh As you walk away Oh As you walk away.
The stab of stiletto
On a silent night
Stalin smiles And Hitler laughs
Churchill claps
  Mao Tse Tung   On the back
