lyrics

The last time that I saw you,
you were waving from the door,
Turtle Fur out by the car there,
feet frozen to the floor

You were looking out at something
in the grayness of the morning
The last time that I saw you,
what it was, I wasn’t sure

The last time I went to Boston,
we drank Red Bull on the floor,
played Set till early morning,
watched videos from before.

We ate sushi on the corner,
bought candy at the store
The last time I went to Boston,
I knew I’d be back for more

You were holding on to something
You were affable and warm
You were someone I looked up to,
a better man for sure

Remember our old music?
Remember our old porch?
Now you don’t live in Boston
You don’t live anywhere anymore

Can I tell you that I love you?
Can I even up the score?
I still make rice the way you taught me
I see you every time I pour

Can I hold on this forever?
Can I listen at the door
and hear you working in your bedroom?
So much sound left to explore

The last time that I saw you,
we ate breakfast food and laughed
We talked about the new year
We joked about the past

The last time that I saw you,
we hugged and said goodbye
I won’t be going back to Boston
It’s just a place you left behind
