Hardly Go To Boston Lyrics

I had a dream last night

That I was walking down Mass Avenue

I never thought I'd see the day

But it's ages since I thought of you

And the city in the winter

And the girl I was before

Now I hardly go to Boston anymore

So you moved to San Francisco

Different weather, different sea

It's a place you swore you hated

It's a lot closer to me

I love Sacramento summers

Built a home with a green door

So I hardly go to Boston anymore

My friends were always skeptics

Of the banners and the airs

It's a lovely place to visit

But they couldn't see me there

They saw all the ways you hurt me

I saw all your hopes and fears

But I haven't been to Boston now

In so many years

And what felt like an eternity

Well now it's just a memory

Someone else's favorite movie scene

Just a song that I hear playin' at the store

I keep the photo album shut

I keep the letters in the drawer

I don't need to have the answers

There are questions

I feel no need to explore

So I hardly go to Boston

There are memories I'd get lost in

But I know too well the cost

And I ignore

Yes, I stay away from Boston

I don't want to go to Boston

Yeah, I hardly go to Boston

Anymore
