Bronski Beat - Smalltown Boy

To your soul

To your soul

Cry... ...Cry... ...Cry...


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 had to leave

For the answers you seek will never be found at home

The love that you need will never be found at home


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

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


Pushed around and kicked around, always a lonely boy

You were the one that 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'd never cry to them, just to your soul

No, you'd never cry to them, just to your soul


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

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

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

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


Cry boy, cry, cry boy, cry, cry boy

Cry boy, cry, cry boy, cry boy, cry, cry boy

Cry boy, cry, cry boy, cry boy, cry, cry boy

Cry boy, cry, cry boy, cry boy, cry


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


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

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

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