Song Lyrics

If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by

Make believe
That you don't see the tears (that you don't see the tears, just let me grieve)
Sure just let me grieve in private (in private)
'Cause each time I see you ('Cause each time I see you)
I just can't help myself I think about how tight we used to be (I break down and)
I break down and cry, oh baby (cry)
Walk on by (walk on)

I just can't get over losing you
So if I seem broken in two

Please walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride
That's all that I have left (is all that I have left)
(So let me hide) so let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me (the tears and the sadness you gave me)
You put the hurt on me, you socked it to me, mama
When you said goodbye (bye)
So please walk on by (walk on)
Make believe you never see the tears I cry (walk on)
So do me a favor and walk by (walk on)
So I'm beggin' ya to walk on by (walk on by)
Oh yeah (walk)
And make believe you never see the tears I cry (walk on by, walk)
So I'm beggin' ya, I'm beggin' ya to walk on by (walk on by, walk)
Make believe you never see the tears I cry (walk, walk on by, walk)
Oh there's no dust in my eye (walk on by)
Oh no (walk)
Smoke ain't makin' me cry (walk on by,
No no no (walk)
It's the hurt you put on me, yeah (walk on by, walk)
I don't wantcha to see this man cry (walk on by, walk)
So please walk on by (walk on by)
Ah no, no, no, walk on by (walk on by, walk)
Walk on by (walk on bye)
(Walk)
(Walk on by)
