It was a kind of town edge of the universe

Nothin' happened there to ever make the news

Lived a little boy and a girl next door

Had opinions and independent views

They dreamed of nights and big city lights

It helped to kill each dreary day

And all the things that gettin' out would bring

If only they could get away

He say

I can't hold on 'cause i'm feelin' strong

But there's so many things i'm not knowing

But the city light didn't burn so bright

And the light of day was never warm

And the little boy got into one more fight

And the girl next dorr said "i miss my home"

He said "believe in me"

She said "i don't know"

He said "can't you see? "

I can't hold on 'cause i'm feelin' strong

And there's so many things i'm not knowing

And i can't hang round this one-horse town

When my soul's tied down i'm for going

So the little boy became a broken man

With a broken face and broken dreams

And the girl next door disappeared one day

And in her place

Was a woman-child with long red hair

And a price per hour that she feels is fair

I can't hold on i'm not feeling strong

There's so many things that hurt me now

And i can't step down from this big cold town

Where my soul's tied down
