O New England |
We’d come seven hours down |
Took the blue line to see where we hopped out |
And I was only joking, I was only joking |
And I was only trying to get a laugh |
You say this was the furthest that we had come |
We traveled so far to watch it fall undone |
And I had lost my token, you were looking bent and broken |
Staring sideways with the rain coming down |
But I am so enthralled |
O New England |
La da dum dum |
O New England |
La da dum dum |
This here is the fable of a failed attempt |
To find new life in a love in the seat of its origin |
From Long to Coney Island, from Mid to West to Upper Highland |
And all I got is this ill-gotten full color souvenir |
The new millennium in New York |
And all of New England |
La da dum dum |
O New England |
La da dum dum |
O New England |
In the face of your empire |
I think I’d rather just wait in the car |
And return to the turnpike |
Watching New England’s skyline sinking below |
Sinking below |
Sinking below |
We’d come seven hours down |
We’d come seven hours down, down |
We’d come seven hours down |
We’d come seven hours down, down |
