It's been five years we've had good and bad
The ivy grows thick in our dark backyard
When I shave in the morning you don't recognize me

I ask if you're still there and you answer truly

don't walk away then turn and say I love you anyway

don't walk away then turn and say I love you anyway
you come for a week to love me then you up and leave next day
don't walk away then turn and say I love you anyway


You think you're so bad but you're just badly raised
You twisted and turned all the love that we made

I cannot hold on and I cannot let go
I was wasted at fifteen never learned to go slow


don't walk away then turn and say I love you anyway
don't walk away then turn and say I love you anyway
you come for a week to love me then you up and leave next day

so don't walk away then turn and say I love you anyway

You pick the curtains and I'll pick the sheets

The silver anniversary will be the next time we meet
I loved you before and I'll love you 'til then
You're my foe and my brother and lover and friend

Don't stay for the good stuff there ain't none left
I'll love you and leave you, drive from this town
if i give you a ring thers one thing you should know

You have seven seconds before it's too late to go

So, don't walk away then turn and say I love you anyway

I never ever wanna see you until our wedding day
don't walk away then turn and say I love you anyway
you come for a week to love me then you up and leave next day

I never ever wanna see you until our wedding day
Don't walk away then turn and say I love you anyway
Don't go away
