The Dream Syndicate - Boston lyrics

Come back to Boston as soon as you can The whole thing ain't gone down according to the plan Morning when I wake up I don't like what I see And late at night my dreams are terrifying me Well, I was walking by the river in the early morning dew Singing out lines from "Cypress Avenue" I wonder where he stood when it all came down Come back to Boston before I hit the ground And the winners stand confused They don't want to be misused And the losers that came before Say "I don't want to be here anymore." Well, I was standing on the back porch Looking at the books: poets, politicians, beauty queens and crooks I wonder where they stood when the inspiration came Come back to Boston before I jump the train Come back to Boston or I'll meet you halfway Somewhere by the middle of the interstate We can take it on down to some cold, deserted lake And come back to Boston before we make the same mistake
