I Will Dance (When I Walk Away) (live & acoustic) Lyrics

n our cold and empty house
I lingered now for far too long
I vainly held the rosary
To pray you'd stay with me a while
But nothing seems to keep me here
The way it used to do before
This time it's me that's leaving you
I'll never turn around

(Bridge)
Cause when the laughter's gone
I know I must be moving on

(Refrain)
And I will dance when I walk away
Oh, I'm gonna sing
I won't beg or pray
I will dance when I walk away
Oh, I'm gonna sing
I won't beg or pray
No more

(Verse 2)
I'm standing at the crossroads now
The fields of opportunity
I'm ready to go anywhere
I'm full of hope and full of fear
And bridges back have all been burned
And freedom has been duly earned
I'll remember why I've gone
Remember where I'm coming from

(Bridge)
Oh, when the laughter's gone, uuhuu
I know I must be moving on

(Refrain)
And I will dance when I walk away
Oh, I'm gonna sing
I won't beg or pray
I will dance when I walk away
Oh, I'm gonna sing
I won't beg or pray
(Interlude)
And now I leave my mask with you
The part I played I never knew
Tonight you're alone
(Refrain) [3x]
And I will dance when I walk away
Oh, I'm gonna sing
I won't beg or pray
I will dance when I walk away
Oh, I'm gonna sing
I won't beg or pray

Oh, this is not a home for me
