I was in love and I wasn't afraid
You were just still written I couldn't play
Then I wasn't so sure of my old day
What is the reason, you wouldn't say
Never returned to Boston
.. the place where my love was lost and
Oh baby, what's it causing me
Look for your face in the railway station
Thought it was you but now I'm mistaken
Where do I look in this great big pation for you
Stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitch-hike
Ain't no love like me and you
Stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitch-hike
Ain't no love like me and you
I was a clown and the circus were me
You were the theme and I was the tame
You were the one that started the flame
Why can't the love that we had be the same
Grabbing the south-side fairway
Rolling my soul with a bottle of sherry
Oh baby, don't you carry me
Never ... and I made it to Boston
Happy return to your home and lost and
Oh baby, how it's supposed to be
Stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitch-hike
Ain't no love like me and you
Stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitch-hike
Ain't no love like me and you
Stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitch-hike
Ain't no love like me and you
I'm stuck on the turnpike
It's taking me days to hitch-hike
Ain't no love like me and you
