Songtext Just can't walk away Karla Bonoff

Just can't walk away

Another day is dawning

On the brown and dirty street

All the valley boys

Push their boards into the sea

And the planes come down

Drowning out the voice inside your head

As you stumble from your bed

High above the city

All the hills burst into flame

We stop and stare a minute

Then somehow life goes on the same

And they all come here

Each of them believing in a dream

And it's just the same for me

I never meant to love you - You're gonna make me cry someday

There's something that's crazy about you

I don't know why I have to stay

I never meant to love you

But I just can't walk away

Another night is falling

Filled with stars we'll never see

Just a million headlights

In the struggle to be free

And we all go home

Lay us down and pray our souls to keep

But you know we're in too deep

I never meant to love you...

Scent of jasmine everywhere

The sun slips through the trees

There's something hanging in the air

It brings you to your knees

I never meant to love you...
