(Downes/Payne)
|
He was just a lonely kid
|
No matter what he did
|
Was never recognised
|
Then you came along
|
Was the second son
|
So special in their eyes
|
|
Oh how he ran
|
To the city where his dreams would turn to man
|
Oh how he ran
|
|
So he lived his life alone
|
Where he lay was home
|
Then they made him move along
|
From town to town
|
With his head held down
|
Then he turned towards the gun
|
|
Again how he ran
|
From the badge he had no chance to understand
|
Oh how he ran
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Don't cut the wire, cos he really needs you now
|
Don't cut the wire, in the final hour
|
When it comes to the rest, you were always the best
|
Brother don't you cut the wire
|
|
Many years have passed
|
But behind the mask
|
He always thought of you
|
Now with a gun in hand
|
It's his final stand
|
Your brother needs you too
|
|
He knows how he ran
|
From the child he was
|
Then later from the man
|
Oh how he ran
|
|
[Chorus]
|
