Lyric Boat On The Charles

Boat on the Charles
Train on a spur down by the riverside
The door s open wide
Planes in a line just seven miles away
They leave every day
And someone s always going south
A guy with a truck here about is going New Year s Eve
Why don t you leave

Why don t I leave
I can t make myself believe
No one really cares for me here
I can t make no sense of this place and I fear
I can t spend another day without hearing from you
Throw my life away and pass my body through into the Charles

Boat on the Charles
Bird on a wire outside my window pane
It s started to rain
Buses in line just seven blocks away
They leave every day
And someone s always asking me why I can t seem
To make myself see
That you won t answer me
Why don t you leave

Why don t I leave
How many times can a man be told
How many times before I lose control
I don t give a damn for my immortal soul
It s just about time I let my insides show
So here I go
