Version 1 of the lyrics

  I went back to Boston  I went back to Boston
1  Back to the city you're lost in.   Back to the City of Lost Love 1
  I went back to the place  I went back to the place
2  without you, facing the stone   And recognized your face in 2
1  the stone long gone1
      
3  Walked         around Harvard Square   I walked around Harvard Square 3
4  The      runaway kids are   All the runaway kids are 4
  still hanging out there  still hanging out there
5  I took the red line all the way   I took the red line a wrong way 5
  Across the River Charles  Across the River Charles
      
6  Some things try and try   Something's changed track           6
  And they never fly  And they never fly
  And they never fly  And they never fly
7  You reach up from the waves   Reach        up from the waves 7
8  And find that you're   You'll find that you're 8
  only waving goodbye  only waving goodbye
      
9  Went       walking in Boston   I went walking in Boston 9
10  Over a bridge I used to walk on   A little bridge I used to walk on 10
11  I was looking for my heart   I was slipping on a hog 11
12  That I'd flung into that                    And I flung into that sea of strong 12
13  Sea of stone, stone   Processing need not apply 13
14                                    For you to license to fly 14
1  Boston said you need not apply   1
2  For your license to fly   2
  Hey young lady don't be so suprised  Hey young lady don't be so suprised
  You know you're not alone  You know you're not alone
      
15  Some things try and try   Something's changed track           15
  And they never fly  And they never fly
  And they never fly  And they never fly
16  You reach up from the waves   Reach        up from the waves 16
17  And find that you're   You'll find that you're 17
  only waving goodbye  only waving goodbye
      
  It was Memorial Day  It was Memorial Day
  I went to where you lay  I went to where you lay
  There were thousands of people  There were thousands of people
18  Just like you in a giant graveyard   Just like you in a chain graveyard 18
      
19  You came all that way          You came out of there awake 19
  Looking for the sky  Looking for the sky
  And got a slap in the face  And got a slap in the face
20  You had a desperate need to be loved   Well hey                                    20
21  You just got put in that place   Desperate needs a big led              21
2  And gets put in the place2
  You better know your place boy  You better know your place boy
      
22  Some things try and try   Something's changed track           22
  And they never fly  And they never fly
  And they never fly  And they never fly
23  You reach up from the waves   Reach        up from the waves 23
24  And find that you're   You'll find that you're 24
  only waving goodbye  only waving goodbye
      
  Only waving  Only waving
  You're only waving  You're only waving
  You're only waving  You're only waving
  You're only waving goodbye  You're only waving goodbye
  Goodbye  Goodbye
