Look Away

(Meade/B. Russell)

All alone
Standing here by myself
And my girl is walking right down the street with someone else
There's not a place that I can run in a town this size
So I just better look away
I said I better look away
I said I better look away before she sees the tears in my eyes

He's so close
The girl I knew so well
With the eyes and the lips and the skin
That I know so well
I know they both want to look at me,
If I smile, that's a poor disguise
I just better look away
I said I better look away
I said I better look away before she sees the tears in my eyes
There they go, and I wonder if either one of them is wise

That when I look away
I said I when I look away
I said when I look away
Did she see the tears in my eyes?
