Lyrics

They turn around
They go astray
Somehow we survive
When they walk away
When they walk away

It's in the past
It's in the way
Somehow we go on
When they walk away
When they walk away

They take our love, they use it up and then it's gone
in a daze, as we try to move along
you're not the one, guess I was wrong

Its where they go, it's what they leave, it's who they are, and who they see, its who they always try to be, its what they do down on their knees (can be changed - if considered profane - to for example "it's why you went down on your knees")

Somehow we survive
When they walk away

You're on your own
You're on your way
Somehow we survive
When they walk away
