"Walk Me Home" is a song by singer Mandy Moore from her debut album, So Real (1999), and released as the album's second single in 1999. The song was featured in the film Center Stage and on the reissue of So Real, I Wanna Be with You (2000). It was written and produced by Tony Battaglia and Shaun Fisher, credited as the production duo The Wasabees.
