"Walkin' Away" is a song written by Annie Roboff and Craig Wiseman, and recorded by American country music group Diamond Rio. It was released in November 1995 as the lead-off single from the album IV.
In the song, the narrator pleads with his estranged lover by saying that just because he may lose his cool every now and then, their love is still good and that they will not get anywhere by walking away from each other.
The music video, directed by Deaton-Flanigen, consists of alternating scenes of the band playing in a small warehouse and short scenes of the band-members and their "dates".
The song entered the charts in early 1996 and peaked at number 2 on both The Billboard Hot Country Songs chart and Canada's RPM country chart.
