Smalltown Boy

Lyrics

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

You leave in the morning with everything you own in a little black case

Alone on a platform, the wind and the rain on a sad and lonely face

Mother will never understand why you have to leave

But the answers you seek will never be found at home

And the love that you need will never be found at home

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

Pushed around and kicked around, always a lonely boy

You were the one they'd talk about around town as they put you down

And as hard as they would try, they'd hurt to make you cry

But you never cried to them, just to your soul

No, you never cried to them, just to your soul

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

Crying, crying to your soul

To your soul, to your soul, to your soul

Cry (cry)

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (cry)
