Look at all the people around me,
|
Same old faces joining the queue.
|
For return to Waterloo,
|
Return to Waterloo.
|
|
Started off this morning as usual,
|
Checkin' out the mail and all the bills to pay.
|
Maybe something special's gonna happen,
|
Maybe this is my lucky day.
|
|
The forecast says heavy weather,
|
So take your umbrella just in case.
|
Will I get away, will I see it through,
|
On the return to Waterloo.
|
|
Return to Waterloo.
|
Return to Waterloo.
|
|
Somehow you feel that the world's been passin' you by.
|
Can't help thinkin' somehow they're living a lie.
|
Now I'm asking questions, I never thought I'd ask them before,
|
Like "why" or "how" or "what am I doing it for?"
|
|
Will I reach my destination,
|
Or will I get off along the way?
|
Will I reach my destination?
|
|
Will I reach my destination,
|
Have I stopped or am I only going slow?
|
Have we got a couple more stations,
|
Or is this as far as we all go?
|
|
The headlines cry out from the papers,
|
"Inflation," "murder," "wars," who really wants to know?
|
If I return to Waterloo,
|
It'll cost me more in 1992.
|
|
Will I get away,
|
Will I see it through?
|
And come back home to you,
|
On the return to Waterloo.
|
