All the cities in the world
|
And so very little time and
|
So many different girls...
|
All you have to do is find them.
|
There¡¯s a wealth of opportunity you make your plans accordingly.
|
A pity but the pretty ones are usually more touristy.
|
Say, how'd you like to run away from these machines?
|
Everywhere the spies are printing out our dreams.
|
Seven stops in seven different countries, seven page itineraries
|
Memories thick as bloody marys, jesus, jospeh, bloody hell!
|
|
Right now we¡¯re here in Boston
|
In love with downtown crossing
|
New York will still be there in the morning
|
Come back to bed my darling
|
|
I had Julian and Steve,
|
You had Julia and Jeanette.
|
You wear your terror on your sleeve
|
For all the men I haven't met¡¦ yet.
|
I had Oliver in Potsdam you had Eleanor in Amsterdam
|
We¡¯re keeping score so carefully we've lost the state we're in completely
|
Honestly your foot is out the door and I¡¯ve got scores of offers
|
Elsewhere and keep both feet planted firmly in the air!
|
And tomorrow you can totally erase me from your mind,
|
No, really, everything is fine, because
|
|
Right now we're here in Boston
|
In my apartment in the south end
|
Forget your friends in London
|
Come back to bed my darling
|
|
You can put the details in a letter
|
The more embarrassing the better
|
Right now I can be happy if I choose to
|
I know that in the morning I will lose you....
|
And maybe you'll be mad
|
And maybe ill be gray
|
Before we really understand
|
Or maybe it won¡¯t matter anyway
|
We¡¯ll find out that your mom was right and you'll admit you're really gay
|
And maybe we¢¥ll wake up
|
In a city far away
|
Or maybe we'll make up
|
And buy a house and have a dozen kids who¢¥ll run away
|
It doesn¢¥t matter anyway
|
|
Right now we're here in Boston
|
In Eden where you almost pulled your pants down
|
Don¡¯t worry who these jokes will all be lost on
|
Come back to bed my darling
|
There is nothing in the world that we can count on
|
Even that we will wake up is an assumption
|
But I know for a fact that I loved someone
|
And for about a year he lived in Boston...
