Walk away

I would have lit a thousand candles,
Just to light your way home to me, love,
But I knew better than that,
Because you'd sooner lose your way,
Than come back to one who still loved,
 You'd rather cut the threads,
And find some other lover,
Who fit in the way you thought love would be,
The way people say,
When they tell you love is easy,
And that they never disagree,
Never want to fail,
But the truth is,
Nobody's built the same,
We all love,
But we still make mistakes,
It's the truest ones,
That stay,
When people like you,
Walk away.
