Emmet Swimming - Boston lyrics

rate me

Took him away when I was four<br />

Indian wrestling partner<br />

Played cops behind the moving trucks<br />

Ran around, around<br />

<br />

And as they drove away<br />

Went back inside to play<br />

Took my toys<br />

Scattered them around, around<br />

<br />

(Like yesterday)<br />

Boston's not far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

To make life just pass on<br />

<br />

(Now it's gone)<br />

So far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

Just pretend nothing's wrong<br />

<br />

(Now it's gone)<br />

So far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

It helps us carry on<br />

<br />

(Now it's gone)<br />

So far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

To make it through till dawn<br />

It got a little harder<br />

<br />

Split up when I was nine<br />

Divvied up the furniture<br />

Went back in the house one last time<br />

Just to walk around, around<br />

<br />

What could they say?<br />

"It's not your fault, it'll be okay"<br />

All my toys were<br />

Scattered around, around<br />

<br />

(Like yesterday)<br />

Boston's not far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

To make life just pass on<br />

<br />

(Now it's gone)<br />

So far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

Just pretend nothing's wrong<br />

<br />

(Now it's gone)<br />

So far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

It helps us carry on<br />

<br />

(Now it's gone)<br />

So far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

To make it through till dawn<br />

<br />

Boston's not far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

To make life just pass on<br />

<br />

(Now it's gone)<br />

So far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

To pretend nothing's wrong<br />

<br />

(Now it's gone)<br />

So far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

It helps us carry on<br />

<br />

(Now it's gone)<br />

So far away<br />

(Oh, the things we say)<br />

To make it through till dawn
