Boston

(album: This Is Your Brain On Love - 2022)

I went with you to Texas
But you never made it to Massachusetts
Tried to fight it but it was useless
When you said we need to talk
And you called it off
Told my family you couldn't visit
And you ate the price of that ticket
And I know it's been a minute
I hope you're doing well
For me it's been hell
Having this city to myself

You could've been kissed in the middle of Harvard Square (oh)
You could've been Back Bay sipping' on ocean air (oh)
Fourth of July and Christmas
Such a shame you're gonna miss this
Could've been us, you lost it
Could've had me
Could've had Boston

Saw you made it up to Fenway
Finally got to see the Sox play
Posted pictures of your whole day
And that you got lost on the T
You should've been there with me
Cause I know that wind is wicked
When it's ripping through your jacket
Kind that gets you cursing while you're laughing
And you can barely feel your toes
But it's not that cold
When you got someone to hold

You could've been kissed in the middle of Harvard Square (oh)
You could've been Back Bay sipping' on ocean air (oh)
Fourth of July and Christmas
Such a shame you're gonna miss this
Could've been us, you lost it
Could've had me
Could've had Boston

We could've held hands walking Washington street (oh)
We could've been silhouettes dancing on the beach (oh)
We could've been coffee cups and Irish luck baby

You could've been kissed in the middle of Harvard Square (oh)
You could've been Back Bay sipping' on ocean air (oh)
Fourth of July and Christmas
Such a shame you're gonna miss this
Could've been us, you lost it
Could've had me
Could've had Boston
Could've been us, you lost it
Could've been us, you lost it
Could've been us, you lost it
Could've had me, could've had Boston
