She Walked Away Lyrics - Barlowgirl - Barlowgirl

She couldn't take one more day 

Home was more her prison now 

Independence called out 

She had to get it 

A fight was all she needed 

To give her reason 

She slammed the door with no goodbye 

And knew that it was time 

Now she's driving to fast 

She didn't care to glance behind 

And through her tears she laughed 

It's time to kiss the past goodbye 

I'm finally on my own 

Don't try to tell me no 

There's so much more for me 

Just watch what I will be 

She walked away 

Couldn't say why she was leaving 

She walked away 

She left all she had believed in 

She walked away 

Not a day goes by 

For the ones she's left behind 

They're always asking, "Why?" 

And thoughts of her consume their minds 

God please let her know 

The love we tried to show 

Would promise anything 

If you'd just bring her home 

She walked away 

Couldn't say why she was leaving 

She walked away 

She left all she had believed in 

She walked away 

Tell her we love her 

And tell her she's wanted 

And one more thing God 

Tell her please, come home 

Please, come home 

She walked away 

Couldn't say why she was leaving 

She walked away 

She left all she had believed in 

She walked away 

Couldn't say why she was leaving 

She walked away 

She left all she had believed in 

The choice is yours alone now 

Tell me how this story ends 

While the son was still a long way off 

His father saw him, and felt compassion for him 

And ran and embraced him and kissed him 

"Let us celebrate for this child of mine was dead 

And he has come back to life 

He was lost and now he is found" 

And they began to celebrate 

Luke 15:20 and 24
