"Walkaway Lover" is a pop song performed by Australian actress/singer Toni Pearen, released as the third single from her debut album Intimate in October 1994. Toni Pearen's first two singles "In Your Room" and "I Want You" both peaked at number ten on the ARIA Singles Chart and were each certified gold. "Walkaway Lover" debuted at number fifty and eventually peaked at number thirty-five, spending a total of twelve weeks in the top 50, and sixteen weeks in the top 100. The single was issued to coincide with the much anticipated release of the album Intimate. Some could cite that the single's underperformance was because it was released more than one year after the successful second single "I Want You". This could also be seen as a reason the album itself also did not chart well.
