Looking back through all these years With the smoked filled skies and a young boys fears Familiar faces pass me by In this small town no wonder why Say goodbye to mam and dad Watch the train depart but they don't feel sad Tears come streaming down her face That she held back till I was out of trace But I'll come back to the place I love and know so well To walk my dog up fairy dell And we don't need time Cos everything just seems the same No endless streets with messed up names Round the back of London Town Everything's alright when I'm around Birthdays, Christmas, Halloween I'll show up then remain unseen Say goodbye to mam and dad Watch the train depart but they don't feel sad Tears come streaming down her face That she held back till I was out of trace But I'll come back to the place I love and know so well To walk my dog up fairy dell And we don't need time Cos everything just seems the same No endless streets with messed up names But I'll come back to the place I love and know so well To walk my dog up fairy dell
