Gotta Get Away From You (Keep On Walking)
When the sunlight hits your window, and you wake up alone
You'll be looking for me, but I won't be there
I'll be there in your mind, in the air that you breathe
You will feel me in the room, but I won't be there
You'll be begging me to come back
You'll be begging me please
You'll be telling me one last lie, and then you'll get down on your knees
But I'm gonna keep on walking, I don't know where to
I just gotta get away from you (gotta get away from you)
Keep on walking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, gotta get away from you
When the sun comes through the curtains that I turned into bars
You'll be thinking to yourself, "How did he escape?"
You had such a strong grip, you had me eating from your hand
You had a trained monkey
How did he escape?
'Cause you forgot to lock the door, babe
You didn't give me no food
If you wanna kill a flower
You gotta grab it by the root
I'm gonna keep on walking, I don't know where to
I just gotta get away from you (gotta get away from you)
Keep on walking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, gotta get away from you
Who's gonna help you tie your shoelace?
Who's gonna give you that sadistic look on your face?
Well, it won't be me
No, it won't be me
When the moonlight hits your window, and you go to bed alone
You'll be missing me, but I won't be there
I'll be there in your mind, I'll be there in your dream
I'll be your nightmare, but I won't be there
Maybe you'll learn something
Maybe you won't
Maybe you forget me, and maybe you don't
I'm gonna keep on walking, I don't know where to
I just gotta get away from you (gotta get away from you)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I just gotta get away from you
Keep on walking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, I just gotta get away from you
Keep on walking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, I just gotta get away from you
Keep on walking (gotta get away from you), yeah, yeah
(Gotta get away from you) yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, gotta get away from you
Keep on walking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, gotta get away from you
You'll be looking for me, but I won't be there
I'll be there in your mind, in the air that you breathe
You will feel me in the room, but I won't be there
You'll be begging me to come back
You'll be begging me please
You'll be telling me one last lie, and then you'll get down on your knees
But I'm gonna keep on walking, I don't know where to
I just gotta get away from you (gotta get away from you)
Keep on walking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, gotta get away from you
When the sun comes through the curtains that I turned into bars
You'll be thinking to yourself, "How did he escape?"
You had such a strong grip, you had me eating from your hand
You had a trained monkey
How did he escape?
'Cause you forgot to lock the door, babe
You didn't give me no food
If you wanna kill a flower
You gotta grab it by the root
I'm gonna keep on walking, I don't know where to
I just gotta get away from you (gotta get away from you)
Keep on walking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, gotta get away from you

Who's gonna give you that sadistic look on your face?
Well, it won't be me

You'll be missing me, but I won't be there
I'll be there in your mind, I'll be there in your dream

Maybe you forget me, and maybe you don't
I'm gonna keep on walking, I don't know where to
I just gotta get away from you (gotta get away from you)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I just gotta get away from you
Keep on walking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, I just gotta get away from you
Keep on walking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, I just gotta get away from you
Keep on walking (gotta get away from you), yeah, yeah
(Gotta get away from you) yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, gotta get away from you
Keep on walking, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, gotta get away from you
