lyrics

Hello, my friend
How's it going out there
It's just fine on this end
California treats me fair
So Beantown's got you down
But you just don't know why
Seems there's a girl or two running around
With what's left of your pride

But it won't be long
'Til you're back on the mend
So I wrote down this song
Just to get you by 'til the sun is shining on Boston again

So tell me about this girl you know
Did she take you for a ride
But you say, Man it's not the girl that's got me low,
Just this empty seat beside me for the rest of this flight

When I arrive
Into Logan again
I might just skip the taxi ride
And catch the next plane to anywhere she's never been

But it won't be long
'Til I'm back on the mend
So I'll just sing your song
To pass the time 'til the sun is shining on Boston again

When I arrive
Into Logan again
I might just skip the taxi ride
And catch the very next plane to anywhere she's never been

But it won't be long
'Til I'm back on the mend
So I'll just sing your song
Just to pass the time 'til the sun is shining on Boston again
