Lyrics The Shirelles

The Shirelles

Look Away

(Look away, look away, look away, look away)

Turn your head & walk on (don't stop) when you see me alone

Don't you bother to say "Good day"

'Cause I do believe I'm makin' out OK

Don't stare at the tears in my eyes

Don't you think that I've got a ridin' sigh

(Look away, look away) when you do me

(Look away, look away) 'cause I just like to be

Turn your head & do some (can't you see) that I'm tryin' to be strong

Don't you look at me like that

Don't you know that you're bringin' all the mem'ries back

This far I do my friends so well

But when you look in my eyes, I'm gonna mope & die

(Look away, look away) when you bump into me

(Look away, look away) just pretend you don't see me

Nobody knows it but you

So keep it a secret; they treat us cruel

If my friends were as cold as ice

It'd all be my friends', not my price

(Look away, look away) don't you look at me

(Look away, look away) you'd better let me be

Don't let me know what, what buddy's up for you

You're a fool, you're broken in 2

(Look away, look away) keep on walkin'

(Look away, look away) just start to talkin'

(Look away, look away)
