She Dreams of Boston

She dreams of Boston On a rooftop with just stars overhead Sitting with one foot hung on both sides of the ledge Staring at the city lights, hanging by a thread He makes excuses And he swears he'll try his best not to be his worst Her sunglasses and heavy makeup hide the hurt But these days "I'm sorry" don't mean anything to her She dreams of Boston When she's close to giving up When love just ain't enough for her to hold She dreams of Boston When she thinks of starting over When she needs a place to find a little hope She dreams of Boston It's complicated How you can hate someone and still love them just the same When the ones who mean the most cause the most pain It's so much harder than it seems to walk away She dreams of Boston When she's close to giving up When love just ain't enough for her to hold She dreams of Boston When she thinks of starting over When she needs a place to find a little hope She dreams of Boston The familiar taste of falling teardrops She's in pieces on the floor Tries to justify what happened Like all the other times before But she's tired of forgiving She'll be damned if it happens again She says the only way to make it stop starts with us Oh, the only way to make it stop starts with us... Ending She dreams of Boston When she's close to giving up When love just ain't enough for her to hold She dreams of Boston When she thinks of starting over When she needs a place to find a little hope She dreams of Boston She dreams of Boston
