I took the blue line from the airport Then the green line all the way I found this city full of light Like a fool I couldn't stay I'm going back Don't know what I'll find I'm coming back To Boston Don't know what I'll find Don't know what I'll find And from here it felt like shouting From the bottom of a well To try and fit where I don't belong I haven't been here in so long Take the Blue Line from the airport Then the Green Line all the way Meet these people full of light If you're lucky you can stay

This looks familiar, vaguely familiar Almost unreal, yet it's too soon to feel yet Close to my soul, yet so far away I'm going to go back there someday Sun rises, night falls, sometimes the sky calls Is that a song there, and do I belong there? I've never been there, but I know the way I'm going to go back there someday Come and go with me, it's more fun to share We'll both be completely at home in midair We're flyin', not walkin', on featherless wings We can hold onto love like invisible strings There's not a word yet for old friends who've just met Part heaven, part space, or have I found my place? You can just visit, but I plan to stay I'm going to go back there someday I'm going to go back there someday

I feel sad, you feel blue I can hardly sleep at night For your man was sore all the time And I know I didn't treat him right You're going back to your first love 'Cause a good man is hard to find I say you'll have such a grand good man Believe me, he is sure on my mind I'm going back Yeah, you carrying it on back I'm going back to my used to be You're going back I'm going back, 'cause my man was so good to me When last winter when times was rough Look out there, Clara You know your man was in the pool yard Strutting his stuff, strutting I'm going back Clara, you say you're going back I'm going back to my used to be And it's this morning Back to my used to be What can you use him for Crazy about my used to be He ain't good-looking I love my used to be

Da jeg gik ud over Langebro En tidlig mandag morgen Da så jeg en der stod og græd. Hvis du tør - så kom med mig. Jeg gik forbi dæmonernes port Ud for Kofoeds Skole Der stod en flok og drak sig ihjel. Hvis du tør - så kom med mig. Jeg mødte en der gik rundt med "Vågn Op" Hun var Jehovas vidne Hun råbte: Jorden går under idag. Hvis du tør - så kom med mig. Jeg så en kvinde der løb efter sin mand Hun havde så skønne øjne Hun råbte: Hey, du har stjålet mit liv. Hvis du tør - så kom med mig. Hvis du tør - så kom med mig. Hvis du tør - så kom med mig.

Når nu min verden bliver kold og forladt Finder jeg trøst i min kæreste skat Klipper motiver med drømme og saks Papirsilhouetter af den fineste slags Her er et af min far og min mor De som gav mig til denne jord Kærlige kys og en duft af jasmin Altid solskin og sødeste min Livet er langt Lykken er kort Salig er den der tør give det bort Her er et af min bedste ven Utallige klip går igen og igen Et aldrig færdigt eller fuldendt motiv Sort silhouet af kvinden i mit liv Livet er langt Lykken er kort Salig er den der tør give det bort Domine et sanctus Domine et sanctus Når nu min verden bliver kold og forladt Finder jeg trøst i min kæreste skat Klipper motiver med drømme og saks Papirsilhouetter af den fineste slags Livet er langt Lykken er kort Salig er den der tør give det bort
