TODD RUNDGREN - Boat On The Charles lyrics

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
