Bilingual
I wanna walk away
Like Judas from the table
Turn my back
And walk away
I wanna close my eyes
Like that novice at the altar
Bow my head
And close my eyes
Sorrow took love's splintered hands
And waltzed her cross a painted floor
Whispered softly in her ear
"Let's get outta here"
I'm gonna breathe the air
That my children will be breathing
Breathe them out
And breathe them in again
I'm going to close my eyes
And walk away
Turn my back
Bow my head
And close my eyes
I'm going to turn my back
Bow my head
And walk away
Turn my back
And bow my head
And close my eyes
I'm going to breath them in
Breathe them out
Breathe them in
Turn my back
And bow my head
Close my eyes, turn my back
Bow my head
Breathe them in
Turn my back
Close my eyes
