Lyrics
We'd come seven hours down Took the blue line to see where we hopped out And I was only joking, I was only joking And I was only trying to get a laugh You say this was the furthest that we had come We traveled so far to watch it fall undone And I had lost my token, you were looking bent and broken Staring sideways with the rain coming down But I am so enthralled O New England La da dum dum O New England La da dum dum This here is the fable of a failed attempt To find new life in a love in the seat of its origin From Long to Coney Island, from Mid to West to Upper Highland And all I got is this ill-gotten full color souvenir The new millennium in New York And all of New England La da dum dum O New England La da dum dum O New England In the face of your empire I think I'd rather just wait in the car And return to the turnpike Watching New England's skyline sinking below Sinking below Sinking below We'd come seven hours down We'd come seven hours down, down We'd come seven hours down We'd come seven hours down, down
