When I was just a boy I’d be kicking a tin
                                         
Take the short cut home through the loony bin
                                          
I never gave much thought to the souls in there
                           
I was just a boy, too young to care


                                   
Well the years go by and you get to see
                              
A dream’s not the same as reality
                                         
Well a dream or two is going to crash and burn
                                     
And that’s the way that you live and learn

Well it was late one night and I woke at two
                                    
And I lay there thinking the way you do
                                 
But it’s a long dark night of the soul
                                   
When those thoughts are turning sad and old


                               
And then outside on the empty street
                            
I heard the sound of walking feet
                                
Well it was just a boy away from home
                                            
And he was singing the song â€˜You’ll Never Walk Alone’
