All of our friends have got a ring on their finger
They feel safe and sound, okay
But what do they know
About a world that is shaking
And a sky that turns to grey
They pulled me there from the wreckage
While the tears flowed my eyes
I saw a picture of you
You walked on by

We talked about living in a house full of children
Dreaming by the fireside
(Two of our hearts filled with good love?) 
On our own we would build a better life
Two people one in a million
Until the day you said goodbye
I’m just a face in the crowd 
So walk on by

Walk on, walk on by tonight
Woman I love you
Walk on, walked on
See me cry
Though I really love you
Perfect strangers feel no sorrow
Don’t look back
Just walk on by

The rain keeps on falling
(Drink?) late into the morning
On another lonely day
Got time on my hands
I like to go down to the river
Watch the seagulls fly away
I close my eyes and I’m watching
All the dreams that passed me by
If I see a picture of you
Just walk on by

Walk on, walk on by tonight
Woman I love you
Walk on, walked on
See me cry
Though I really love you
Perfect strangers feel no sorrow
Don’t look back
Just walk on by x2

Walk on by
Just walk on by
Walk on by 
Walk on by
Walk on by
