SHE DREAMS OF BOSTON
She dreams of Boston
On a rooftop with just stars over head
Sitting with one foot hung on both sides of the ledge
Staring at the city lights, hanging by a thread
He makes excuses
And he swears he’ll try his best not to be his worst
Her sunglasses and heavy makeup hide the hurt
But these days “I’m sorry” don’t mean anything to her
She dreams of Boston
When she’s close to giving up
When love just ain’t enough for her to hold
She dreams of Boston
When she thinks of starting over
When she needs a place to find a little hope
She dreams of Boston
It’s complicated
How you can hate someone and still love them just the same
When the ones who mean the most cause the most pain
It’s so much harder than it seems to walk away
She dreams of Boston
When she’s close to giving up
When love just ain’t enough for her to hold
She dreams of Boston
When she thinks of starting over
When she needs a place to find a little hope
She dreams of Boston
The familiar taste of falling teardrops
She’s in pieces on the floor
She tries to justify what happened
Like all the other times before
But she’s tired of forgiving
She’ll be damned if it happens again
She says the only way to make it stop starts with us
Oh, the only way to make it stop starts with us…Ending
She dreams of Boston
When she’s close to giving up
When love just ain’t enough for her to hold
She dreams of Boston
When she thinks of starting over
When she needs a place to find a little hope
She dreams of Boston
