Del Shannon

every time i have to lie it tears me apart
every time i see you cry
It takes a piece of my heart
i know that i said never never walk away from you
i know that i said i'd always be there my whole life through
i got to walk away
there's nothing left that i can do but walk away
slowly turn my eyes from you and walk away
every time i make believe it hurts more and more
there was a time i couldn't see now i know for sure
i know that i can't help it if it hurts you when i say goodbye
don't know why it has to be the way it is i tried and i tried
i got to walk away
