Hurry Boy lyrics

Hurry boy, you must save yourself

You gotta leave this town tonight `cause there`s

Something here it`s gonna take

You down it`s gonna run your life

Don`t turn around when you leave this town

You`ve got only one chance

Or you`ll get caught up like the others

In this web of circumstance



In the town where I was born

There was a lady

Some called her crazy

But I think she`s alright

She took me in one night

And was so gentle

Somehow I felt she`d been

Waiting for me



She spoke of love and war and sons and daughters

I drank some water and I fell into a dream

And in the dream I saw what lay before me

A young girl crying in a lonely churchyard scene

And as I lay there half asleep recalling

I heard this voice come calling

To me, to me

To me, to me

And you know it said



Hurry boy, you must save yourself

You gotta leave this town tonight `cause there`s

Someone here who`s gonna take

You down she`s gonna run your life

Don`t turn around when you leave this town

You`ve got only one chance

Or you`ll get caught up like the others

In her web of circumstance

Keep on running



I was confused and felt my senses falling

She did not tell me why when she broke the spell

And in the back of my mind I heard that lonely warning

It said keep on running, don`t stop running

Keep on running away

Stumbling out into the misty morning

I couldn`t help myself from looking back

And it was then I saw her for the first time

Laughing and crying, living and dying

And then I thought I heard that voice again

And she said



Hurry boy, you must save yourself

You gotta leave this town tonight `cause there`s

Someone here who`s gonna take

You down she`s gonna run your life

Don`t turn around when you leave this town

You`ve got only one chance

Or you`ll get caught up like the others

In her web of circumstance

Keep on running
