Ben Harper - Walk Away Lyrics






Oh no
Here comes that sun again
That means another day
Without you my friend

And it hurts me
To look into the mirror at myself
And it hurts even more
To have to be with somebody else
And it's so hard to do
And so easy to say
But sometimes
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Walk away

With so many people
To love in my life
Why do I worry
About one

But you put the happy
In my ness
You put the good times
Into my fun
And it's so hard to do
And so easy to say
But sometimes
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Walk away
And head for the door

We've tried the goodbye
So many days
We walk in the same direction
So that we could never stray
They say if you love somebody
Then you have got to set them free
But I would rather be locked to you
Than live in this pain and misery

They say time will
Make all this go away
But it's time that has taken my tomorrows
And turned them into yesterdays
And once again that rising sun
Is droppin' on down
And once again you my friend
Are nowhere to be found
And it's so hard to do
And so easy to say
But sometimes
Sometimes you just have to walk away
Walk away
And head for the door
You just walk away
Walk away

    This song is the only one i ever learned to play with a guitare. And i never feel the need to learn another one.

  2. n.... r....

  3. J.... E....

    Nah! I'll wait right here. Liberty and justice for ALL!

  4. I.... D....

    I never heard about Ben Harper, until I saw a documentary with him and his mom who happens to be white, they spoke about his upbringing, his grandfather, and music it was beautiful. I am a fan.

    Walk Away

    Oh no
    Here comes that sun again
    That means another day
    Without you my friend

    And it hurts me
    To look into the mirror at myself
    And it hurts even more
    To have to be with somebody else
    And it's so hard to do
    And so easy to say
    But sometimes
    Sometimes you just have to walk away
    Walk away

    With so many people
    To love in my life
    Why do I worry
    About one

    But you put the happy
    In my ness
    You put the good times
    Into my fun
    And it's so hard to do
    And so easy to say
    But sometimes
    Sometimes you just have to walk away
    Walk away
    And head for the door

    We've tried the goodbye
    So many days
    We walk in the same direction
    So that we could never stray
    They say if you love somebody
    Then you have got to set them free
    But I would rather be locked to you
    Than live in this pain and misery

    They say time will
    Make all this go away
    But it's time that has taken my tomorrows
    And turned them into yesterdays
    And once again that rising sun
    Is droppin' on down
    And once again you my friend
    Are nowhere to be found
    And it's so hard to do
    And so easy to say
    But sometimes
    Sometimes you just have to walk away
    Walk away
    And head for the door
    You just walk away
    Walk away

    Oh não
    Aí vem o sol de novo
    Isso significa mais um dia
    Sem você minha amiga

    E me machuca
    Ver a mim mesmo no espelho
    E me machuca ainda mais
    Ter que estar com um outro alguém
    E é tão difícil de fazer
    Mas tão fácil de falar
    Mas às vezes
    Às vezes, você tem que ir embora
    Ir embora

    Com tantas pessoas
    Para se amar nessa vida
    Porque eu me preocupo
    Com uma

    Mas você põe a "felici"
    Na minha "dade"
    Você põe os bons momentos
    Na minha diversão
    E é tão difícil se fazer
    Mas tão fácil se falar
    Mas às vezes
    Às vezes você tem que simplesmente ir embora
    Ir embora
    E rumar para a porta

    Nós tentamos dizer adeus
    Tantos dias
    Nós andamos na mesma direção
    Para que nunca pudéssemos nos separar
    Dizem que se você ama alguém
    Então tem que libertá-lo
    Mas eu preferiria viver preso à você
    Do que viver nessa dor e tristeza

    Dizem que o tempo vai
    Fazer com que tudo isso vá embora
    Mas foi o tempo que tomou meus 'amanhãs'
    E transformou-os em 'ontem'
    E mais uma vez esse sol nascente
    Está se pondo
    E mais uma vez você, minha amiga
    Não pode ser encontrada
    E é tão difícil de se fazer
    Mas tão fácil de se falar
    Mas as vezes
    As vezes você só tem que ir embora
    Ir embora
    E rumar para a porta
    Você simplesmente deve ir embora
    Ir embora

    Walk away
    And head for the door
    You just walk away
    Walk away
    Walk away
    Just walk on, walk on, turn and head for the door, just walk away.

    I miss my best friend. RIP. I love her and I miss her. I've lost many friends in one way or another. Still is very hard.

  17. I.... L....

    Q música mais gostosinha. Amei!

  18. c.... a....

    The 402 thumbs down must be those 402 who simply couldn’t walk away. We always have a choice, it’s the beauty of living life as a free willed human being :)

  19. W.... N....

    Fazia tempo que eu não ouvia esse som, muito show!!!

  20. E.... P....

    Made it 45 seconds lol😭

  21. n.... c....

    The song takes me to a wonderful time in my life - why must things change!?!

  22. M.... A....

    I've almost never listened to this song without shedding a tear.

  23. V.... F....

    Beauty you are Man. Merci. Thank you to be Here : Ben Harper. Foverer. Take care of You.

  24. B.... 1....

    I'm tired of walking away

  25. B.... S....

    Sorry, Big Clay.....Angel will ALWAYS BE your "ride or die"....yet, She has to "Walk Away" from you once more......ALL OF Y'aLL'S MARSHALL BABIES NEED Y'ALL TO BE THEIR HEROS...WALK AWAY, TOO, CLAY....SAY GOODBYE TO THE stupid shit...u can do it...she is...

  26. A.... v....

    Just discovered this song today, it's been a while since I found music this good

  27. M.... 8....

    Dedicated to one of my biggest teachers. So many thanks in so many ways. I love You, I forgive you, Forgive me, Thankyou 🙏. I wish the absolute best for you. Some love is only meant for a moment...

  28. M.... C....

    I'm in pieces and It was my fault
    I wish i could get back in time
    This song describes my actual days so damn well.

  29. l.... G....

    Te dibujaria una vida tras otra, eres perfecto.

  30. C.... M....

    This song lighted upon me in the darkest valleys my valued reader, and i found myself crying after losing everything. I thought my team was strong but i just kept on losing facing the world alone. Then the tornado came with the excruciating pain but still I see no door to walk away. So I don''t know if it's true that things do get better over time or it's just easily said.

  31. S.... W....

    Sigh. Back to this song again. Im getting to old to fall into this love trap again. When will i learn not to give away my insteady heart?

  32. V.... F....

    Sometimes you just have to walk away because you have nothing to prove. Walking away with no need to claim innocence is the only way out when you can´t seem to understand why you are being chased. The good new is that karma will eventually punish the ones that are to blame. Gosh!I truly love this song. Amén Ben Harper. 🙏

    Brilliant. Timeless lyrics

  42. l.... ....

    Jesus i just realized this song is unrequited, never finding love, and giving up and the time lost between love from hurting, and walking away? Wow...*mind blown*

  43. I.... e....

    hurts my heart

    sexaY Man

  45. m.... n....

    takes me back to my younger days... listening to ben harper on my $10 mp3 player. no technology. no social media. no drama. just happiness.

  46. J.... ....

    Beautiful

  47. S.... R....

    Omg... there's a song for every feeling, just 1 Ben Harper and that's a shame. Thank you man!

  48. K.... S....

    It's been four months now since they've left home... I guess the hardest thing to do is to accept they are never coming back.

  49. T.... ....

    Ben has such a beautiful voice. I've been listening to his music for almost 15 years, and he still has the ability to peer into my heart and sing songs to carry me through any hardship I hit in life.

  50. M.... L....

    My best friend Warren killed himself in 2006. This was the song playing in his car at the time of his death and one of the songs played at his funeral.

    M.... L....

    so sad... my best friend lost his brother who was a huge BH's fan. So he started to listen to him and then share it with me. I discovered BH because of this. We should never doubt the power of true love; and music is the best way to share the love within us

  51. b.... o....

    This kind of melody always charming my heart and my spirit ! Words are the final touch of beauty !

  52. J.... M....

    Wow like an arrow. straight to the heart... melancholically beautiful.

  53. t.... ....

    As we laughed, flirted and shared little things, beyond attraction our souls connected. And sure enough as the months passed I loved her, despite the knowledge or wisdom I know I lacked, I just _loved_ her, and wanted to share this world with her.
    But life, fate, timing whatever you call it, and I could not have her. She deserved a better chance at happiness than the misery I knew I could bring, and she knew it too. It was all I could do to seem ok as we both let it go. The love was innocent, pure, beautiful. But it was like a rose growing in the middle of a highway, out of place and hopeless.
    From the the best part of me I hope and pray for her every happiness it would have been my privilege to bring and much much more.
    Now, from a safer distance, all that's left - God help my heart walk away :(

    t.... ....

    I feel you :)

  54. R.... H....

    What is wrong with 213 people? this is a great song

  55. A.... M....

    lovenin any prey in my way, i nown a ricchnest , life dd peace in peace of  in to entry a word..lvks

  56. K.... ....

    Trop beau!!!! pfff de France!

  57. S.... H....

    I had never heard this song before. It's beautiful...sigh.

    S.... H....

    Hey Shelley, love this song as well.  Have a listen to my cover and let me know what you think :-)https://youtu.be/5Fr_tuDPJsA

  58. M.... M....

    So much I love about your music. But this song had always rung true. I will always love him. Still dream about him after 10 years. I love my life now...but I think maybe you only get one true love.

  59. M.... H....

    who the fuck would dislike this??

  60. D.... C....

    She has forgotten who I am. Guess its time to walk away. Going to be playing this quite often.

  61. S.... Z....

    pretty excellent, don't entirely agree but damn that was sweet.

  62. T.... R....

    It didn't hurt too much for him to be with somebody else. He hit his wife with a divorce out of left field and just walked away. Poor Laura.

  63. B.... E....

    Beautiful!

  64. m.... c....

    live from Mars version is more soulful IMO

  65. s.... ....

    Thanks blue pill lifestyle

    s.... ....

    shotartist what's the pill mean

    s.... ....

    blue pill = living life blissfully ignorant. you would rather be comforted by a lie than be hurt by the truth
    red pill = living life knowing the truth about everything. no matter how brutal the truth is.
    HINT: the red pill is better. google "the red pill" for further instructions if you're a male.

  66. J.... P....

    I remember an old friend I had part ways I am still your friend but it's just as it is.

  67. A.... R....

    Brilliant.

  68. N.... a....

    He reminds me of Amos Lee...

  69. A.... a....

    Is thos guy Christian? Some of his songs sound like it. 👍

    A.... a....

    Sarah g how does someone sound christian? lol, but i would say with the music he makes he might as well be jesus himself

    A.... a....

    Sarah g oh i read that wrong, you meant some of his songs sound like christian songs

    A.... a....

    I like what ya said. Very funny and so true.

    A.... a....

    Rasta im pretty sure

  70. j.... v....

    I love tacos yall...

  71. R.... S....

    Guitar sounds like "Say Yes" by Elliott Smith

    R.... S....

    Technically Elliott Smith sounds like Ben Harper since this is 3 years older then Sam Elloitt's song.

    R.... S....

    Joe Murtha Yeah it's True.

  72. Z.... H....

    crazy how a song can relate to your real life events !

    Z.... H....

    Zakaria Hysoka that's called relatabilty. It's the reason we connect to music, not a YouTube epiphany.

    Z.... H....

    That's because they _come_ from real life events, and those events are common to us all.

  73. E.... A....

    Quentin if you read this I really miss you, thanks for so much, enjoy your trip.

  74. F.... C....

    wow this is so soul touching. everything makes sense when I hear music like this

  75. K.... Z....

    Love This song !!! daaaaamn

  76. z.... z....

    excellent song writing

  77. P.... G....

    waking Thur the door to open my eyes to see the sun shining down on me ..stay happy an no one can touch that

  78. D.... P....

    most people think of this as a don't about leaving a relationship. However, for me it's more about accepting the loss of a loved one. I realized that accepting it is a dream. it's been almost six years. it doesn't go away. this song makes me grateful for an amazing relationship one that would make God's blush. always and forever<3

  79. a.... g....

    Just love this man and his music-and a joyful sound was heard throughout the land, which lifted this old man out of his lethargy and back into the world. Love!

    a.... g....

    I hope all is well man, there is still some good to be had in the world. All Love!

    a.... g....

    Spot on! Liefs and Thanks, Keeping the faith.

    a.... g....

    adriaan geurtsen you deserve to thrive, welcome back sir... you have lots to offer the rest of us so keep on expressing yourself and living your way... respects

  80. S.... C....

    I had not heard of him before, now that I've discovered his music, it's just what I'm been looking for....he is phenomenal.

    S.... C....

    check out "I shall not walk alone" with the Blind Alabama Boys. just amazing.

    S.... C....

    I suggest "Another Lonely Day".

  81. A.... m....

    lovely tune

  82. C.... U....

    Dear reader, I hope you have an incredible day! Stay strong and chase your dreams, no matter how crazy they may seem! Even after my hardships this comment I saw on a video picked me up so I wanted to pass it along.

  85. S.... E....

    Man against the world

  86. D.... ....

    Ben Harper is one of if not the most talented artist currently and in a long long time. His voice , ability to play instruments along with singing with his heart and soul is simply intriguing, mesmerizing,and truly gratifying to the soul within. He shares his life experiences through his music and most of us if not all of us can relate to one or more of his experiences in our lives through his incredible music. If your only now beginning to explore this man and his music, spend some time there is a lot to savor with his incredible talents and offerings. He simply is Fucking Awesome !

    A.... G....

    When you hear this song, what do you miss or think about the most? Weston himself, or the good, happier times you spent together, before things started going down the hill for you? How long back was this guy Weston in your life? I am just curious to know.

  93. J.... H....

    Sad but true

    J.... H....
