Ohh just one mistake
And they walk away
(Break, instrumental)
Life is going fine
You're okay, yep, so am I
I don't have any need to cry
Life is going more than fine
Then why am I wiping tears from my eyes?
Life is going great
Even though you walked away
(Chorus)
Mau mau walked away
There was nothing I could say
Mau mau walked away
From me on that day
I don't chase I attract
Except with this smart pussy cat
I've tried all the ways
But they just won't stay
I've called and I've cried
But all they say is goodbye
I give up every minute of every day
Just to spend a second with you, babe
(Chorus)
Mau mau walked away
There was nothing I could say
Mau mau walked away
From me on that day
(Bridge emotional, rising)
Oh I just made one mistake
And they walked away that day
Oh what would it take
To get us back to that day
Before you walked away
(Echo chorus "walked away")
Walked away
Mau mau walked away
They walked away
Opening doors with my help no more,
To find someplace or someone else
They walked away
They don't need my help
(Echo chorus "walked away")
