Analysis of Walking Away
Glenn L Maluchnik 1962 (New York)
Your broken hear-ted.
Soon departed on her way.
Not to say who was right or wrong.
I am singing a sad song.
Watching you walk away.
I dream it was just talk.
It was real as can be.
The seal on my heart was broken.
She came and now she's gone.
You left me with a lot of pain.
No gain for me.
I have to pay the broken heart keeper.
So I can fix the seal on my heart.
I feel the tears going down my face.
My phone number will not change if you ever want to call me.
It must be my heart talking for me.
