Walk On By Lyrics

Susan Ashton Walk On By

It'll catch your eye,
Drawing you in to stop you cold
A little shine,
Yea, but all that glitters isn't always gold

CHORUS
Bowing at the feet of temptation, gazing in the windows of whim
You see the pleasure that has got you standing still
But there's more to that than meets the eye
Don't let it hold you there against your will
Better walk on by, yea, better walk on by

It'll do more harm than it does good, go while you still can
'Cause it'll twist your arm and have you eating from the palm of its hand

And favoring a fatal attraction
Will take you down a piece at a time
And giving in will only leave you wanting more
It'll haunt you 'till the day you die
Yea, believe me, I've been there before
Better walk on by, yea, walk on by

Focus on the treasure, heaven knows the pleasure
Waiting for those who wait
Straighter than an arrow, traveling that narrow road
Listen to your heartbeat, faith can move your clay feet
Better to walk on by

CHORUS
