Walk Out Backwards

I’d rather live a life of lies and fantasy
Than face the truth and realize you’re leavin' me
You built me up so high
My heart can’t stand the fall
And life without your love just isn’t life at all
So walk out backwards if you must go
And please don’t wave goodbye
Just wave one last hello
The truth won’t hurt so much if I can’t just pretend
So walk out backwards
And I’ll think you’re walkin' in
You walked into my heart in search of sympathy
From that day down to this
You’ve walked all over me
And now you’re walking out to love somebody new
But you’re not by yourself
'Cause my heart’s leavin' too
So walk out backwards…
