Lyrics

Dirty old river Must you keep flowing On into the night? People so busy Make my feel dizzy. Taxi lights shine so bright. And I don't Need no friends. Long as I gaze on Waterloo Sunset I am in paradise. Terry meets Julie Waterloo Station Every Friday night. But I am too lazy Don't need to wander I stay at home at night And I don't Need no friends. Long as I gaze on Waterloo Sunset I am in paradise. (Sha na na...) Every day I Look at the world from My window (Sha na na...) Chilly, chilliest evening time, Waterloo Sunset's fine (Waterloo Sunset's fine...) Millions of people Swarming like flies round Waterloo Underground. But Terry and Julie Cross over the river Where they feel safe and sound. And they won't Need no friends. Long as they gaze on Waterloo Sunset They are in paradise. (Waterloo Sunset's fine...) [repeat to fade]
