“Leave a beer on the hospital steps with a lipstick kiss goodnight
Watch for me down Cambridge Street smashing out the lights.”
Your words came steady and your words came quick
Your talk was heavy as we walked the bricks
Of this town that you never would admit you loved -
A whole wide world it was keeping you from
Goodnight, make mends
We’ll see where this one ends
I’ll meet you at the bottom of the road
Goodnight, sweet friend
Until we meet again
I’ll keep you in my brokenhearted soul
Market Street’s never gonna be the same
Washington lost its rhyme
It’s gonna be quiet ‘round Union Square
With her withering neon signs
And your “desolate kingdom of sprawling bricks”
Came crashing to the ground
We strode like kings through the Allston snow
When the bars had kicked us out
Goodnight, make mends
We’ll see where this one ends
I’ll meet you at the bottom of the road
Goodnight, sweet friend
Until we meet again
I’ll keep you in my brokenhearted soul
With ironclad bones, you made this town your own
You made your mark and left the scars unsewn
With ironclad bones, you made this town your own
You made your mark and left the scars unsewn
Goodnight, make mends
We’ll see where this one ends
I’ll meet you at the bottom of the road
Goodnight, sweet friend
Until we meet again
I’ll keep you in my brokenhearted soul
Goodnight, make mends
We’ll see where this one ends
I’ll meet you at the bottom of the road
Goodnight, sweet friend
Until we meet again
I’ll keep you in my brokenhearted soul
