There was a boy who ran away from what he didn't know
And whom he wouldn't say he just had to go

Something it snapped
inside of him as he fled from a nameless threat
Crowds of people stand aloof in Waterloo there's no sunset
sunset

And when he gets to that mythic place
the streets are dirty dark and deep
There is no rest there is no place to lay a head to sleep
to sleep
to sleep
to sleep

There was a boy who ran away from what he didn't know
And whom he wouldn't say he just had to go

I went to so much trouble to banish you from my side
He said that your an accident
an accident about which I should forget
forget

And now that the wheel has gone around he's back where he belongs
And he knows there is no hope only solace in the words of this song

solace
in the words of this song

There was a boy who ran away from what he didn't know
And whom he wouldn't say he just...
He had to go
