about

I'd been back at work .......... and this is how I felt about it! I hadn't expected to post a new song just yet, but this arrived at an opportune time.

Cobbled together while burning the midnight oil after work, the original idea for this came about quickly, as did the lyrics - the recording, mixing and mastering seem to have taken a lifetime.

The guitars are my trusty Seagull S6 (what a great guitar that's turned out to be) and my Tele.

lyrics

Walk Away
© Neil Porter 11/2007

I can’t do this any more
I can’t sell my restless soul this way
Just need to mend my breaking heart
I need to walk away
I need to walk away
Walk away
Just need to mend my breaking heart
I need to walk away

I’ve been down this road so many times
It seems to have a hold on me
Just a little longer out of water
And then I’ll walk away
And then I’ll walk away
Walk away
Just a little longer out of water
And then I’ll walk away

Look at me I’m back on the road again
Same old sleepy country towns
Same old empty sky
Looking in my rear-view mirror again
Trying to catch the warning signs
That have passed me by

In my broken bower once again
I listen to my beating heart
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
I have to walk away
I have to walk away
Walk away
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
I have to walk away

If I had my time again
I might not sell my soul
I’ve got this terminal reprise
And then I’ll walk away
And then I’ll walk away
Walk away
I’ve got this terminal reprise
And then I’ll walk away
