Look Away

[Verse 1: Bill Champlin]

When you called me up this morning, told me 'bout the new love you found

I said, "I'm happy for you, I'm really happy for you"

Found someone else, I guess I won't be coming 'round

I guess it's over, baby, it's really over, baby, woah

And from what you said, I know you've gotten over me

It'll never be the way it used to be

So if it's gotta be this way

Don't worry, baby, I can take the news okay

[Chorus: Bill Champlin, Chicago]

But if you see me walking by and the tears are in my eyes

Look away, baby, look away

And if we meet on the streets someday and I don't know what to say

Look away, baby, look away

Don't look at me

I don't want you to see me this way

[Verse 2: Bill Champlin]

When we both agreed as lovers we were better off as friends

That's how it had to be, yeah, that's how it had to be

I tell you I'm fine, but sometimes I just pretend

Wish you were holding me, wish you were still holding me, woah

I just never thought that I would be replaced so soon

I wasn't prepared to hear those words from you

I know I wanted to be free

Yeah, baby, this is how we wanted it to be

[Chorus: Bill Champlin, Chicago]

But if you see me walking by and the tears are in my eyes

Look away, baby, look away

And if we meet on the streets someday and I don't know what to say

Look away, baby, look away

Don't look at me

I don't want you to see me this way

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus: Bill Champlin, Chicago]

If you see me walking by and the tears are in my eyes

Look away, baby, look away

And if we meet on the streets someday and I don't know what to say

Look away, baby, look away

Don't look at me

I don't want you to see me

[Post-Chorus: Bill Champlin, Chicago]

You see me walking by and the tears are in my eyes

Look away, baby, look away

Don't look at me

I don't want you to see me this way

[Outro: Bill Champlin]

When you called me up this morning, told me about the new love you found

I said, "I'm happy for you, I'm really happy for you"
