And he won't be there
to tell things to you at night
Cause he's got wise now
and he's no longer her fool
You know she's missing him
She made a bad decision
So far away and
in a different world now
And you were his friend
But this time, this time
he'll be smarter
The boy has gone away
He has played his part
The boy has gone away
The boy is looking sharp
The boy has gone away
He has played his part
The boy has gone away
The boy is looking sharp
And in his place now
he's got someone who'll be there
He still thinks of her
and that won't go away
You know he's missing her
She made the wrong decision
But he's much harder
And he doesn't miss the way
that you were his friend
But this time, this time
he'll be smarter
The boy has gone away
He has played his part
The boy has gone away
The boy is looking sharp
The boy has gone away
He has played his part
The boy has gone away
The boy is looking sharp
The boy has gone away
The boy has gone away
