I Looked Away

LYRICS

You're still turning heads But it's a week since I slept in your bed And you know what they say In love only a fool looks away

I know what you'll say That you were long gone anyway But the shake in your voice Tells me this was all my choice

Hey hey, hey hey

When I looked away I knew that I would pay With my freedom to do anything with you But I suspect that I knew when our love turned blue That our time together was nearly through

There'll be other times When love gets a chance to be refined Every lover has his day But every heartbreaker will always go astray

Please don't ask me to try If I say nothing then I can't tell a lie It doesn't hurt to move on But keep a hold on what we had for so long

Hey hey, hey hey

When I looked away I knew that I would pay With my freedom to do anything with you But I suspect that I knew when our love turned blue That our time together was nearly through

So baby we're here And time has healed what we had year by year If you take me back today You will have your chance to look away

Hey hey, hey hey

When I looked away I knew that I would pay With my freedom to do anything with you But I suspect that I knew when our love turned blue That our time together was nearly through
