Youssou N'Dour Don't Walk Away lyrics

Because what we keep inside
Should be brought out now
If it is cold
We should cover ourselves
And if it is hot
We'll be cool enough
And if the child is suffering
We should find a way to heal the pain
With everything we've heard
And all we've seen
Let's melt the ground on which
We have been frozen in

Don't walk away from it
If we do, we'll pay for it
No one else to blame for it
Don't walk away

Divine and conquer
To keep people on different sides
Confrontation and all the lies

I'm just sitting here wondering why
Why don't we talk about it
Why does it scare us so

We all need a peaceful life
Come on now
We must share it

Don't walk away from it
If we do, we'll pay for it
No one else to blame for it
Don't walk away

Don't walk away from it
If we do, we'll pay for it
No one else to blame for it
Don't walk away

Don't walk
Don't walk away
Back
Back and forth

Hey
Hey
