lyrics

in northern massachusetts
the autumn turns so quick
we went down walking through it
ended up in the styx

i see you in cathedrals
names carved into the piews
hands folded words unspoken
never thought much of it

i wonder where you’ve been
i wonder where you’ve been

long hair across the common
light coming through the trees
your face turned red from winter
you turned to look at me

I burn to see you coming
and i burn to watch you leave
i lose the hours dreaming
about you in between

and i could haunt this city
looking for your ghost in alley ways and open doors
or i could get my head straight
realize that baby, it’s not like that anymore

come home alone in denim
I want to feel the cold
the winter wind like menthol
comes blowin through my bones

i lean into o’hara
until my mind gets tough
but in my mouth the tea is
never quite hot enough

i am not what you need
i am not what you need

oh i am hardly half i used to be
wakin at night from strange and violent dreams
Oh massachusetts won’t you look at me
Oh massachusetts won’t you look at me
Oh massachusetts won’t you speak to me
Oh massachusetts won’t you speak to me
Oh massachusetts
