"Boston" lyrics

"Boston"
(originally by Augustana)

In the light of the sun, is there anyone?
Oh, it has begun
Oh, dear, you look so lost
Your eyes are red when tears are shed
This world, you must have crossed, you said

"You don't know me, you don't even care"
Oh yeah, and you said
"You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains"
Oh yeah, that's what you said

Essential yet appealed
You 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, you said

"You don't know me, you don't even care"
Oh yeah, well, you 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 'em 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 a sunset
I hear it's nice in the summer, some snow would be nice, oh-yeah

You don't know me, and you don't even care
Oh yeah

Boston, where no one knows my name
Where no one knows my name
No one knows my name
Oh yeah

Boston
Where no one knows my name
