Walk On By
Chris Hillman and Alan Thornhill


If I were to lose it all tomorrow
End up on the dark side of the road
Brother would you stare at me in sorrow
Alone out in the cold

Hidden by the wayside you will find her
Standing in the shadows of hard times
It is said that there but for fortune
Brother go you or I

Walk on by pretend that you don't see her
Walk on by don't lend a helping hand
There's a cold wind blows through the heart and the soul of every man
Walk on by

Have we lost our sense of direction
Abandonin' all we were led to believe
To lift those out of desperation
Helping the blind to see

Blessed is the child who lives for the others
Walks a mile or two in their shoes
Till the last heartbeat is forgotten
Just to what are you gonna do

Walk on by pretend that you don't see her
Walk on by don't lend a helping hand
There's a cold wind blows through the heart and the soul of every man
Walk on by
Walk on by
Walk on by
Walk on by
