Boston Lyrics by Alex Cornell

0

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
This world you must've crossed... she said...

You don't know me, you don't even care, oh yeah
She said
You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains... oh yeah

Essential yet appealed, carry all your thoughts across
An open field
When flowers gaze at you... they're not the only ones who cry
When they see you
She said...

You don't know me, you don't even care, oh yeah
She said
You don't know me, and 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 him out to Spain...
Oh yeah and 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

You don't know me, you don't even care, oh yeah...

Boston... where no one knows my name... yeah
Where no one knows my name...
Where no one knows my name...
Boston...
No one knows my name
