 Oh!  Get me away  from here I'm dying
 Play  me a song to  set me free
 Nobody  writes them like they  used to
 So  it may as well  be me
 Here  on my own now  after hours
 Here  on my own now  on a bus
 Think  of it this way
 You  could either  be successful  or be us
 With  our winning smiles,  and us
 With  our catchy tunes  and words
 Now  we're photogenic
 You  know  we don't stand a  chance (we  don't stand a chance)
 
 
   few times
 Oh I'll settle down with some old story
 About a boy who's just like me
 Thought there was love in everything and everyone
 You're so naive!
 They always tell a sorry story
 They always get it in the end
 Still it was worth it as I turned the pages solemnly, and then
 With a winning smile the boy
 With naivety succeeds
 At the final moment, I cried
 I always cry at endings
 B - Fagain a few times
 Oh, that wasn't what I meant to say at all
 >From where I'm sitting, rain
 Washing against the lonely tenement
 Has set my mind to wander
 Into the windows of my lovers
 They never know unless I write
 "This is no declaration, I just I'd let you know goodbye"
 Said the hero in the story
 "It is mightier than swords
 I could kill you sure
 But I could only make you cry with these words"
 Cry with these words
 Ooh! Get me away I'm dying
 B - Fto end

Oh I'll settle down with some old story
About a boy who's just like me
Thought there was love in everything and everyone
You're so naive!
They always tell a sorry story
They always get it in the end
Still it was worth it as I turned the pages solemnly, and then

With a winning smile the boy
With naivety succeeds
At the final moment, I cried
I always cry at endings

Said the hero in the story
"It is mightier than swords

But I could only make you cry with these words"

Cry with these words
Ooh! Get me away I'm dying
