Walk Away from Love - Ken Boothe

It’s not that I don’t love you

You know how much I do, understand me, girl

And it’s not that I’ve found someone

To take the place of you

It’s just a fear that builds up in me

Every time you touch my hand, I don’t understand it, baby

And a dread that shakes my body

That even I don’t understand

So I’m leaving

It’s time to play it smart

I’m gonna walk away from love

Before love breaks my heart

You know I love you, girl

Ooh, you’re clinging to me tighter

Than you ever have before

I just can’t understand it, baby

But I know it’s gonna take everything I’ve got

To keep walking out the door

But those arms you got around me

Will let me go someday

But I’d rather leave you holding on

Than pushing me away

So I’m leaving

It’s time to play it smart

I’m gonna walk away from love

Before love breaks my heart

Ooh baby

So I’m leaving, ooh girl

It’s time to play it smart

I’m gonna walk away from love, ooh girl, yeah

And it’s strength shakes my body

I’m gonna walk away from love, ooh girl

Love ain’t treating me right, ooh yeah

Saying, I’m leaving you this time

I’m leaving you, baby, ooh girl

I won’t be coming back, oh no no no no no

I’m leaving you this time

Leaving leaving leaving this time

Oh oh oh oh oh

La la la la

Cha cha cha cha

La la la la

Leaving you this time

Ooh girl

I’m leaving you this time
