Boston Rose Video (MV)

The autumn leaves are falling, the tourists have all gone
And the children they have all gone back to school
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 says
And her lovely face is with me all the day
Well I met her down in old Tralee, hair of gold upon her head
I took her heart and she stole mine away

So goodbye my Boston beauty, farewell my Boston rose
I'll wait for you, I'll think of you, no threat to you I'll pose
Goodbye my Boston beauty, farewell my Boston rose
I wish that you were here but I know that's the way life goes

There's a song we sang all summer in the bars of Dublin town
I can hear it on the factory radio
And the feelings I remember when I hear that simple tune
Makes me wonder if it really happened so
For we laughed and loved together, till the summer days were gone
And you had to fly across the ocean wide
So goodbye my Boston beauty, until we meet again
I'll keep the fires burning deep inside

So goodbye my Boston beauty, farewell my Boston rose
I'll wait for you, I'll think of you, no threat to you I'll pose
Goodbye my Boston beauty, farewell my Boston rose
I wish that you were here but I know that's the way life goes

And some night when I'm drinking and my friends all gathered round
Well, just for fun someone brings up your name
I smile there with the rest of them but I can't hear a sound
I love you but to them it's all the same
And nights when I'm alone my love, you come into my mind
And visions flash across the emerald isle
I watch the moon there up above, I leave this earth behind
And I call to you as I go sailing by

So goodbye my Boston beauty, farewell my Boston rose
I'll wait for you, I'll think of you, no threat to you I'll pose
Goodbye my Boston beauty, farewell my Boston rose
I wish that you were here but I know that's the way life goes
I wish that you were here, so farewell my Boston rose
