Took him away when I was four
Indian wrestling partner
Played cops behind the moving trucks
Ran around, around
And as they drove away
Went back inside to play
Took my toys scattered them around, around[Chorus]
(Like yesterday)
Boston's not that far away (Oh, the things we say)
To make life just pass on (Now it's gone)
So far away (Oh, the things we say)
Just pretend nothing's wrong (Now it's gone)
So far away (Oh, the things we say)
It helps us carry on (Now it's gone)
So far away (Oh, the things we say)
To make it through til dawn
It got a little harder
Split up when I was nine
Divvied up the furniture
Went back in the house one last time
Just to walk around, around
What could they say?
"It's not your fault
It'll be OK"
All my toys were scattered around, around
(Chorus 2x)
