Turning Away (song lyrics) [rock ballad]

[rock ballad with a melissa etheridge throaty, angsty, guttural feel]

I can’t tell you
What I’m feeling

My heart is pounding
My head is reeling

My heart and soul are
What you’re stealing

As you’re turning away…

**

You can’t hear me
I’ve lost my voice

The world is silent
Not one small noise

Could there tru-ly be
No other choice?

No, you’re still turning away.

**

And now I see that you’re
Needing to breathe
And I’m watching you go…

Its not that you and me
Were even meant to be
I wasn’t ready to know.

**

**

I’m all alone again…
Yeah, here I stand

Won’t you turn back around
Just take my hand

The truth sinks slowly in
That’s not the plan

You’re simply turning away…

**

Turn, turn, turn,
Turning away.

Turn, turn, turn,
You’ll never stay…

Turn, turn, turn,
Turning away.

Turn, turn, turn,
My turn to stray…

**
Now I can slowly hear
The world outside

I know I only was
Here for the ride

If I knew a way
I’d be at your side

Instead . . . I’m turning away.

**

Turn, turn, turn,
Turning away…

Turn, turn, turn,
You’ll never stay…

Turn, turn, turn,
Turning away.

Turn, turn, turn,
You’ll never stay…

Turn, turn, turn,
I’m turning away.
