Leaving This All Behind ...

Augustana - Boston 


In the light of the sun, is there anyone? Oh it has begun...
Oh dear you look so lost, eyes are red and tears are shed,
This world you must've crossed... she said...

You don't know me, you don't even care, oh yeah,
She said
You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains... oh yeah,

Essential yet appealed, carry all your thoughts across
An open field,
When flowers gaze at you... they're not the only ones who cry
When they see you
She said...

You don't know me, you don't even care, oh yeah,
She said
You don't know me, and you don't wear my chains... oh yeah,

She said I think I'll go to Boston...
I think I'll start a new life,
I think I'll start it over, where no one knows my name,
I'll get out of California, I'm tired of the weather,
I think I'll get a lover and fly him out to Spain...
Oh yeah and I think I'll go to Boston,
I think that I'm just tired
I think I need a new town, to leave this all behind...
I think I need a sunrise, I'm tired of the sunset,
I hear it's nice in the Summer, some snow would be nice... oh yeah,

You don't know me, you don't even care, oh yeah...

Boston... where no one knows my name... yeah
Where no one knows my name...
Where no one knows my name...
Boston...
No one knows my name. 

* An old tune, that brought  so much memories of the years I spent in university with Simon, and the other friends. 6 years have passed, and yet, the memory lingers ever so strongly.

* A tune about moving away and starting afresh. How ironic. It's been a few months now since I started all over again here in this metropolitan city on steroids. 
* Yes, I still long for those days when everything's much simpler, and all we had to worry were exams and financial burden. 
* Someone once asked, why wouldn't I move away from our dear country instead? Since greener pasture's definitely on some other side. Not in this country in a sad state with political bickering and nonsense being debated in the sitting. And I can't deny that I am in fact, still considering the options. Whether should I leave this all behind, and move on to the next stage in life. Again.

*Happy Saturday dear people. Enjoy this great tune.
