Boston Rose

Now the Autumn leaves are falling and the tourists have all gone And the children they have all gone back to school And my life is as it was before I work eight hours a day but the company's still making all the rules There's a girl in Massachusetts south of Boston town she said And her lovely face is with me all the day But I met her down in old Tralee , golden hair upon her head Well I took her heart and she stole mine away Goodbye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose I'll wait for you I'll think of you no threat to you I'll pose Good bye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose I wish that you were here but I know thats the way life goes Theres a song we sang all summer in the bars of Dublin town I can here it on the factory radio And the feeling I remember when I here that simple tune Make me wonder if it really happened so For we laughed and loved together 'till the summer days were gone And she had to fly across the ocean wide Well, goodbye my Boston beauty Until we meet again And I'll keep the fire burning deep inside Goodbye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose I'll wait for you I'll think of you no threat to you I'll pose Good bye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose I wish that you were here but I know that's the way life goes Sad Verse And some nights when im drinking and my friends have gathered 'round And just for fun someone calls out your name Well I smile there with the rest of them but I cant hear a sound I love you but to them it's all the same At nights when im alone my love you come into my mind And visions flash upon the Emerald Isle Well I watch the moon there up above I'll leave this earth behind And I'll call to you as I go sailing by Goodbye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose I'll wait for you I'll think of you no threat to you I'll pose Good bye my Boston beauty fare well my Boston rose I wish that you were here but I know thats the way life goes I wish that you were here So farewell my Boston Rose
