Nights In The Back Bay - Jamie Alimorad

It was half passed five

One September day

I stole a breath and stepped off the box car

A true believer

A brave new world

One foot in front of the other on the Longfellow Bridge

Yeah that’s what I did

Walked around the Common

The cobble stone of Beacon Hill

The candle light posts had a lot to say

All I could do was obey

I could picture all my tomorrows

As I made my way down Marlborough

Nights in the Back Bay

I remember when

Nights in the Back Bay

The road had no end

My faith has been shaken

My heart keeps aching

To return to those nights in the Back Bay

I’ve gotta get born all over again

All over again

Boned a seat at Fenway

While the rain came down the whole game through

The Sox walked off in the ninth inning

And the sky turned a deep shade of blue

All those cold nights neath the Harbor lights

Wandering in the dark leading with my hungry heart

Nights in the Back Bay

I remember when

Nights in the Back Bay

The road had no end

My faith has been shaken

My heart keeps aching

To return to those nights in the Back Bay

I’ve gotta get born all over again

All over again

All over again

All over again (Nights in the Back Bay)

All over again (Nights in the Back Bay)
