Song Description

Boy leaves girl and years later wants to come back. She's over him and moved on...and tells him so. Our ideas, thoughts and priorities change as we mature. What we once thought was a time of heartache or pain we now know was simply a stepping stone to reach where we are today. It's a song of leaving the past behind and using personal knowledge and experience.

Lyrics

Just Keep On Walkin
Christy Grimsley (Vocals), Jane Pietrantoni (Lyrics), Music by Frank Pietrantoni

You called me on the phone sayin' where has the time gone
Still believein' what we had would still be here not gone.
You left one night; went out of sight, but that was years ago
How could you think I'd still need you, did you think I wouldn't grow
Your girl next door grew up that night
(made a pact to make it right)
Got in the Car, with my guitar
(and drove away out of sight)
I found a life for writing songs, for someone else to see
You're my inspiration, my walking memory

So Just keep on walkin, life's been good without you
Just keep on walkin, Coz I've no time for you,

I drove so far and found the bar that let me play my songs
The boys went wild to see the child who could hold her own
Town after town I worked for pay, one guy followed me
In he'd walk, he talked the talk, but did the things he'd say
He walked me to my hotel room that night
He told me everything would be alright
Pleasured me in such a way
That made me feel brand new
And he's still here today
So why would I need you?

So just keep on walkin'. life's been good without you
Just keep on walkin, coz I've no time for you
Just keep on walkin, Your girl next doors all grown up now
Just keep on walkin, This woman don't need you

I don't need you
You only talked the talked until the day, she came along
Then you walked out on me, singing her sweet song

Just keep on walkin'. life's been good without you baby
Just keep on walkin, coz I've no time for you
Just keep on walkin, Your girl next door is grown up now
Just keep on walkin, This woman don't need you

-Chorus out-
