1975 Tonight (i Wish I Was Your Boy)
[Intro]
I tell you I can visualise it all
Too real it all seems
But once again, runnin' away with me
Once again‚ runnin' away with me
This couldn't be a dream
Runnin' away with me
Runnin' away with me
[Verse 1]
And I stop myself for a minute
See if my heart's still in it
Say a few things just to win it
Funny how it works out‚ innit?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I told her‚ "Some things have their time
How can I be yours if you're not mine?"
She said, "They should take this pain
And give it a name"
[Chorus]
Tonight, I wish I was your boy‚ I
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Run away from me, run away from me)
Tonight‚ I think I f..cked it royally
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Run away from me, run away from me)
[Verse 2]
Give yourself a new name
Change your voice on the train
Have her complain about your fame
Tell me that it's all a rigged game
[Pre-Chorus 2]
She told me, "Some things just take time
How can you be sure if you won't try?"
She said, "I guess I'll take this pain
Instead of your name"
[Chorus]
Tonight, I wish I was your boy, I
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Run away from me, run away from me)
Tonight, I think I f..cked it royally
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Run away from me, run away from me)
[Bridge]
And it's been playing on my mind
Unfortunately, I've been to this place in my life far too many times
Sunday's nearly over so I'll just lie awake
Tonight, I wish I was your boy, I
Tonight, I think I f..cked it royally
[Chorus]
And tonight, I wish I was your boy, I
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Run away from me, run away from me)
Tonight, I think I f..cked it royally
(Run away from me, run away from me)
(Run away from me, run away from me)
