Bacharach, with lyrics by Hal David.
The song was originally recorded in 1964 by Dionne
Warwick, who charted at number 6 with her version on
the Billboard Hot 100. Isaac
Hayes covered the song in 1969 and reached
number 30 on the Hot 100 chart and number 13 in the R&B charts with his
version. "Walk
On By" has since charted numerous times in various countries, with wildly
different arrangements. The following entries discuss the chart versions of the
song, in the order in which they appeared.
If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by
Make believe
that you don't see the tears
Just let me grieve
in private 'cause each time I see you
I break down and cry
And walk on by (don't stop)
And walk on by (don't stop)
And walk on by
I just can't get over losing you
And so if I seem broken and blue
Walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye
Walk on by
and walk on by
and walk by (don't stop)
Walk on by, walk on by
Foolish pride
Is all that I have left
So let me hide
The tears and the sadness you gave me
When you said goodbye
Walk on by (don't stop)
and walk on by (don't stop)
and walk by (don't stop)
