Don't Look This Way

​

Don't Look This Way

Don't turn around again

Just keep on walking by,

It's easier my friend

Don't Look This Way

But if you only knew

That yesterday I walked these streets just like you

Don't Look This Way, Don't Look This Way

It's easier my friend for you and me.

​

Don't ask me why life can be so cruel

What did I do to earn these heartaches that I face?

To live each day, if only to survive

How can I feel alive when my life's a disgrace?

Don't Look This Way, Don't Look This Way

It's easier my friend for you and me

​

How can I pretend they don't notice me?

When they look into my eyes, how could they ever know?

If I asked them for a quarter,

Would they turn and spit at me?

Do they know this is not where I chose to be?

​

I had a life, with hopes and dreams

But giving up is what they see

If there's a chance, a chance somehow

To shed the past, the moment's now!

​

So just keep walking by and look the other way

Don't turn around again,

They'll be a better day

It's easier my friend for you and me.
