Electric Light Orchestra Boy Blue song lyrics

Hey, boy blue, can't you hear all the noise?

It's for you, all the town's waiting there.

Let us go, there's a show like you ain't seen before.

Welcome home, where you been all these years?

Look around, all the crowd is in tears.

It's so good to see you in the streets of your town.

Hey, boy blue is back.

Hey, boy blue is back.

Hey, boy blue is back.

Hey, boy blue is back.

Hey, boy blue is back.

Hey, boy blue is back.

I've see bold knights dropping down like flies

I've seen kings rolling in the mire

I've seen God point the finger of doom to our foes.

I have fought in the holiest wars

I have spent some of the holiest chores.

I've been jailed, been impaled, and been dragged through the world.

One thing I have learnt through these years

Is that no man should be stricken with fear.

It should be that he walks with no care in the world.

So my friends, who are gathered today

Hear this clear, for I'll not further say

That no man shall cause me to take up arms again.

Hey, boy blue is back.

Hey, boy blue is back.

Hey, boy blue is back.

Hey, boy blue is back.

Hey, boy blue is back.

Hey, boy blue is back.
