Patty Griffin
Boston

I went back to Boston
Back to the city you're lost in
I went back to the place without you, facing the stone

Walked around Harvard Square
The runaway kids are still hanging out there
And I took the red line all the way
Across the River Charles

Some things try and try
And they never fly
And they never fly
You reach up from the waves
And find that you're only waving goodbye

Went walking in Boston
Over a bridge I used to walk on
I was looking for my heart
That I'd flung into that sea of stone, stone

Boston said you need not apply
For your license to fly
Hey young lady don't be so surprised
You know you're not alone

Some things try and try
And they never fly
And they never fly
You reach up from the waves
And find that you're only waving goodbye
It was Memorial Day
I went to where you lay
There were thousands of people
Just like you in a giant graveyard

You came all that way
Looking for the sky
And got a slap in the face
You had a desperate need to be loved
You just got put in that place
You better know your place, boy

Some things try and try
And they never fly
And they never fly
You reach up from the waves
And find that you're only waving goodbye
Only waving
You're only waving
You're only waving
You're only waving goodbye
Goodbye


Mirror lyrics:

Goodbye
You're only waving goodbye
You're only waving
You're only waving
Only waving
And find that you're only waving goodbye
You reach up from the waves
And they never fly
And they never fly
Some things try and try

You better know your place, boy
You just got put in that place
You had a desperate need to be loved
And got a slap in the face
Looking for the sky
You came all that way

Just like you in a giant graveyard
There were thousands of people
I went to where you lay
It was Memorial Day
And find that you're only waving goodbye
You reach up from the waves
And they never fly
And they never fly
Some things try and try

You know you're not alone
Hey young lady don't be so surprised
For your license to fly
Boston said you need not apply

That I'd flung into that sea of stone, stone
I was looking for my heart
Over a bridge I used to walk on
Went walking in Boston

And find that you're only waving goodbye
You reach up from the waves
And they never fly
And they never fly
Some things try and try

Across the River Charles
And I took the red line all the way
The runaway kids are still hanging out there
Walked around Harvard Square

I went back to the place without you, facing the stone
Back to the city you're lost in
I went back to Boston

red and black blues

before you burn

salutations

when you don't control your government people want

until we meet again

fear of flying

embrace

't duits lieke

tether

my melancholy baby

taste of things to come

what wondrous love

so together

i've got a feeling

oo wee

quiza

miehet ei itke

te dejãƒâ© la puerta abierta

ophã©lie flagrant des lits
