Thank you thank you thank you thank you THANK YOU Corey.

You're the best, I don't know what I'd do without you.
Everyone else, listen up.
I wanted to stay. Yes! I WANTED TO STAY HERE AND GRADUATE HERE NEXT YEAR. I love the people here, I love my job, I love how easy school is, I WANTED TO STAY. But I can't. I won't get the financial aid I need to attend a GOOD college if I stay (long story.) So I'm going home. I'm heartbroken over it, and Corey found lyrics that make me want to CRY... because besides the baby dreads thing, this song DESCRIBES me. (Oh, and there are a few other things that don't apply... I'll change them along the way.)

She comes from Boston
Works at the jewelry store (actually, it's a nursing home.. but that's okay.)
Down in the harbor
Where the ferries come to shore
She never really knew how good it would feel
To finally find herself in a place so warm and real

She wears a Red Sox cap
To hide her baby dreads (actually, I have wavy hair... I would never get dreads lol)
The girl she was in New England
Is different now and dead
In all the local bars (actually, it's more like all the local hangouts haha, I'm not nearly old enough to go to a bar... unless it's Alex's. Cuz I know everyone there and they know I don't drink.)
She flirts and tells the boys while they're talkin'
She's from Boston

She comes from Boston
Talks to her family now and then
Through e-mails and postcards
She tries to explain to them
That education and occupation will have to wait for now (cept it can't... that's why I have to leave.)
She loves the Rasta, reggae rhythms,(I do, but not so much as I have dreads)
her dreams have changed somehow (THAT'S HUGE)
She wears a Red Sox cap
To hide her baby dreads
The girl she was in New England
Is different now and dead
In all the local bars
She flirts and tells the boys(Yeah, I do lol)
while they're talkin'
She's from Boston

Her toes dig deep and deeper in the sand
She's seduced by the sunsets and her new life at hand

She wears a Red Sox cap
To hide her baby dreads
The girl she was in New England
Is different now and dead
In all the local bars
She flirts and tells the boys
while they're talkin'
She's from Boston

She wears a Red Sox cap
To hide her baby dreads
From Boston
She came to this island from Boston (it's not an island, it's a small city. Close enough... lol)
