I've got to break my young girl's heart
I don't see it any other way
Well i'll leave in what i'm wearing
There can't be any further delay
Well I promised that girl of mine
That marriage would be so sweet and fine
And now i'm going to turn my back away
So I'm running
Yeah I'm catching the next train
If you see her can you tell her
That she'll find a better fella
Well i'm just too scared to say it to her face
Well I'm sure fond of you girl
But I can't go and settle down
Well a man can settle
But a boy's got to look around
Can't spend my time wondering
About everything that might have been
What other kind of girl I might have found
So I'm running
Yeah I'm catching the next train
If you see her can you tell her
That she'll find a better fella
Well i'm just too scared to say it to her face
Well you might say that I'm a coward
For refusing to commit
But when you're in love you know it
And I know that this ain't it!
So...
If you see her can you tell her
She'll find a better feller
I'm just too scared to say it to her face
