Lyrics
Boston
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the light of the sun, is there anyone?
Oh it has begun
Oh dear you look so lost
Eyes are red and tears are shed
The world you must've crossed, you said
You don't know me
You don't even care... oh yeah
She said, you don't know me
You don't wear my chains... oh yeah
Yeah
Essential and appealed
Carry all your thoughts
Across and open field
When flowers gaze at you
They're not the only ones
Who cry when they see you
You said
You don't know me
You don't even care... oh yeah
She said, you don't know me
You don't wear my chains... oh yeah
She said I think I'll go to Boston
I think I'll start a new life
I think I'll start it over, where no one knows my name
I'll get out of California, I'm tired of the weather
I think I'll get a lover and fly'em out to Spain
I think I'll go to Boston
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new town, to leave this all behind
I think I need a sunrise, I'm tired of the sunset
I hear it's nice in the summer some snow would be nice... oh yeah
Boston...where no one knows my name, yeah
No one knows my name
No one knows my name...yeah
Boston... no one knows my name
Boston... no one knows my name
