I used to take it for granted
Like it would always be that way
Until my bags sat waiting to leave
On graduation day
If I could go back to Back Bay
I'd re-trace every step, live each day just the same
I'd watch the sunset over the river
As the city skyline's painted on the waves
If I could go back to Back Bay
It's been a while since I've seen her
In the rearview mirror I saw her fade
I memorized all her train lines and street names
But I feel her memory dissipate
If I could go back to Back Bay
I'd re-trace every step, live each day just the same
I'd watch the sunset over the river
As the city skyline's painted on the waves
When I go back to Back Bay
I'll re-trace every step, just live for the day
Watch the sunset over the river
As the city skyline's painted on the waves
If I could go back to Back Bay
Wish I could go back to Back Bay
