Jorn - I Walked Away lyrics
[Jorn - I Walked Away lyrics]
Once I was a rebel living in a dream
Breaking young girls hearts I
Could be so mean
I used to be strung out and lost in a trance
Now I look back at those
Days like a bad romance
My life is loaded with those dark memories
And still I am haunted by
That cold winters breeze
I was causing so much sorrow and pain
Until I found the sun and
Reached out of the rain
I had to walk away from the man I used to be
Yeah I walked away from a life in misery
Had to clear my clouded heart
To see a brighter day
I walked away… yes I walked away
I remember the reverends daughter
Brought up on holy water
Hallelujah, such a sweet wild thing
I couldn't stop my desire so I
Set the woman on fire
Made her promises but my love was a lie
I was loaded when she broke
The news: she said
You are the devil that brought me the blues
That woman left me in a wicked state of mind
When I woke up next morning I
Felt half dead and blind
She had to walk away from
The man she didn't need
Ooh she walked away from a
Love not meant to be
There was something wrong from the start
And she just could not stay
She walked away from me
Ooh… I had to walk away from
The man I used to be
I walked away from a life in misery
Had to clean my blackened heart
To find a brighter day i walked away
I had to walk away… Walk away
It seems like only yesterday
Now I'm a better father, brother
Friend and lover
Breaking young girls hearts I
Could be so mean
I used to be strung out and lost in a trance
Now I look back at those
Days like a bad romance
My life is loaded with those dark memories
And still I am haunted by
That cold winters breeze
I was causing so much sorrow and pain
Until I found the sun and
Reached out of the rain
I had to walk away from the man I used to be
Yeah I walked away from a life in misery
Had to clear my clouded heart
To see a brighter day
I walked away… yes I walked away
I remember the reverends daughter
Brought up on holy water
Hallelujah, such a sweet wild thing
I couldn't stop my desire so I
Set the woman on fire
Made her promises but my love was a lie
I was loaded when she broke
The news: she said
You are the devil that brought me the blues
That woman left me in a wicked state of mind
When I woke up next morning I
Felt half dead and blind
She had to walk away from
The man she didn't need
Ooh she walked away from a
Love not meant to be
There was something wrong from the start
And she just could not stay
She walked away from me
Ooh… I had to walk away from
The man I used to be
I walked away from a life in misery
Had to clean my blackened heart
To find a brighter day i walked away
I had to walk away… Walk away
It seems like only yesterday
Now I'm a better father, brother
Friend and lover
