lyrics

WHEN SHE WALKED AWAY
John Soeder
© 2010

I used to despise
The way she dots her i’s
When she misspoke
I was quick to criticize
She sang off-key
I let it get to me
She had a million ways
Of driving me crazy

Now what can I do
What can I say
She never looked more beautiful
Than she did when she walked away

Her smile was crooked
Her jokes were rarely funny
She was prone to exaggeration
She owes me money
But you know what they say
Same old cliché
Until it’s gone
Don’t know what you got
All I know is I’m still here
And she’s not

What can I do
What can I say
She never looked more beautiful
Than she did when she walked away

My my
(Whoa my my)
Hey hey
She never looked more beautiful
Than she did when she walked away

I miss the way
She burned the toast
I miss her smile
I miss her jokes
And I miss the way
She dots her i's
I miss every single thing about her

But what can I do
What can I say
She never looked more beautiful
Than she did when she walked away

My my
(Whoa my my)
Hey hey
She never looked more beautiful
Than she did when she walked away
