As You Walked Away

Now here's a ras' in co'
I'm telling ya old boy
That's all I'm saying
A showman
Lotta mercy
Chage and Aska
Shaggy, Maxi Priest
What a wicked combination
Lotta mercy
Yeah

Yesterday I thought I was the luckiest around
Little did I know that you were gonna take me down
'Cause a thousand tears won't wash away the pain
'Cause the more I think of you just leaves me
Hanging out in the rain
Got to find a way to keep a hold onto my pride
'Cause I know that even when you left you took my side
And the love you feel for me will always be
(You will always be by my side)
But you had to go, get out on your own
Take a look at the world you don't see (Watch this)

No you never skipped a beat
When you walked out on me
Like a butterfly I see, you're free (Dying to see your face girl)
And a tear rolls down your cheek
As you waved goodbye to me
But you kept on walking never skipped a beat
(Japanese princess)

Sometime I'll get used to spending my nights
There on my own
Then I'll have to learn to greet the morning all alone
Yesterdays we shared were like a dream (What a vision)
At night I reach out for you baby
And wonder what might have been
I tell myself we'll try again
Another time and place
Everywhere I look I always see your face (Yes Maxi, tell 'em)
We know this was never meant to be (How could it)
So you had to go, just get out on your own
Girl, without me (Watch this)

Still you never skipped a beat
When you walked out on me
Like a butterfly I see, you're free (Do you now)
Then a tear rolls down your cheeks
And I knew it had to be
When you waved goodbye and walked away from me

I reminisce on your love
And it's bringing me tears
Oh me 'eart skip a beat
I wondered if she really cared
I miss the stroking of your fingers through my facial hair
Just the thought of you leaving really runs me scared
I'm expressing my feelings please don't think that I am weird
You listen, it over man
When the internet appeared
I love ya bad, girl I'm sad
And I'm missing all I had
I know you left me an' gone
And it's driving me mad

Oh you never skipped a beat
When you walked out on me
Like a butterfly I see, you're free (Tell 'em again)
Then a tear rolls down your cheek
When you waved goodbye to me (Got me in tears)
But you kept on walking never skipped a beat (Yes wide boy)
And you never skipped a beat when you walked out on me
Like a butterfly I see, you're free
Then a tear rolls down your cheek
As you walked away from me
But you kept on walking never skipped a beat...
