Boston - Boston (1976) by Boston (보컬) on maniadb.com

I looked out this morning
and the sun was gone
Turned on some music to start my day
I lost myself in a familiar song
I closed my eyes and I slipped away

It's more than a feeling
when I hear that old song
they used to play
I begin dreaming
'till I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin' away

So many people have come and gone
Their faces fade as the years go by
Yet I still recall as I wander on
as clear as the sun in the summer sky

It's more than a feeling
when I hear that old song
they used to play
I begin dreaming
'till I see Marianne walk away
I see my Marianne walkin' away

When I'm tired and thinking cold
I hide in my music forget the day
and dream of a girl I used to know
I closed my eyes and she slipped away

She slipped away

It's more than a feeling
when I hear that old song
they used to play
I begin dreaming
'till I see Marianne walk away

Now if you're feelin kinda
low bout the dues
you've been paying Future's
coming much too slow
And you wanna run but
somehow you just keep on stayin
Can't decide on which way to go
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I understand about indecision
But I don't care if I get behind
People livin' in competition
All I want is to have
my peace of mind

Now you're climbin
to the top of the company ladder
Hope it doesn't take too
long Can'tcha you see
there'll come a day when
it won't matter
Come a day when you'll be
gone I understand about indecision
But I don't care if I get behind
People li vin' in competition
All I want is to have
my peace of mind

Take a look ahead
take a look ahead,
yeah yeah yeah yeah

Now everybody's got advice
they just keep on givin'
Doesn't mean too much to me
Lot's of people out to
make believe they're livin'
Can't decide who they should be
I understand about indecision
But I don't care if I get behind
People li vin' in competition
All I want is to have
my peace of mind

It's been such a long time
I think I should be goin' yeah
And time doesn't wait for me
it keeps on rollin'
Sail on on a distant highway
I've got to keep on chasin' a
dream I've gotta be on my way
Wish there was something
I could say

Well I'm takin' my time
I'm just movin' on
You'll forget about me
After I've been gone
And I take what I find
I don't want no more It's just
outside of your front door
It's been such a long time
It's been such a long time

Well I get so lonely
when I am without you
But in my mind deep in my mind
I can't forget about you
Good times and faces that
remind me I'm tryin' to forget
your name and leave it
All behind me
You're comin' back to find me

Well I'm takin' my time
I'm just movin' on
You'll forget about me
After I've been gone
And I take what I find
I don't want no more It's just
outside of your front door
It's been such a long time
It's been such a long time

It's been such a long time
I think I should be goin'
And time doesn't wait for me
it keeps on rollin'
There's a long road I've
gotta stay in time with
I've got to keep on chasin' that
dream Though I may never find it
I'm always just behind it

Well I'm takin' my time
I'm just movin' on

Well, we were just another band out of Boston
On the road to try to make ends meet
Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars
And we practiced right on out in the street
No, we didn't have much money
We barely made enough to survive
But when we got up on stage and got ready to play
People came alive.

Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Dancin' in the streets of Hyannis
We were getting pretty good at the game
People stood in line and didn't seem to mind
You know everybody knew our name
Livin' on rock-n-roll music
Never worry 'bout the things we were missing
When we got up on the stage and got ready to play
Everybody'd listen.

Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Playin' for a week in Rhode Island
A man came to the stage one night
He smoked a big cigar
Drove a Cadillac car
And said, "Boys, I think this bands outta-sight
Sign a record company contract
You know I've got great expectations
When I hear you on the car radio
You're goin' to be a sensation!"

Rock and roll band
Everybody's waitin'
Gettin' crazy
Anticipating love and music
Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

We're gonna play you a song, a little bit of rock-n-roll
You gotta let yourself go, the band's gonna take control.

Day is night in New York City
Smoke, like water, runs inside
Steel idle trees to pity
Every living things that's died
Gonna hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Gonna sail away
Sun lights another day
Freedom on my mind
Carry me away for the last time Oh yeah


Life is like the coldest winter
People freeze the tears I cry
Words of hail their minds are into
I've got to crack this ice and fly
Gonna hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Gonna sail away
Sun lights another day
Freedom on my mind
Carry me away for the last time


Gonna hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Gonna sail away
Sun lights another day
Freedom on my mind
Carry me away for the last time
