Dirty old river, must you keep rolling, rolling into the night *
people so busy, make me feel dizzy, taxi light shines so bright *
but i don't need no friends
as long as i gaze on waterloo sunset, i am in paradise *
every day i look at the world from my window
chilly chilliest evening time, waterloo sunset's fine

terry meets julie, waterloo station, every friday night *
but i am so lazy, don't want to wander, i stay at home at night *
but i don't feel afraid
as long as i gaze on waterloo sunset, i am in paradise *
every day i look at the world from my window
chilly chilliest evening time, waterloo sunset's fine.
Millions of people swarming like flies `round waterloo underground *
terry and julie cross over the river where they be safe and sound *
and they don't need no friends
as long as they gaze on waterloo sunset, they are in paradise *
