Augustana - Boston

Augustana es una de esas bandas yanquis que basan gran parte de sus canciones en el piano, como pueden ser también "The Fray" o "One Republic". Fundada en 2003, estos chicos de California, llevan editados 2 discos y una formación que ha sido bastante inestable durante estos 5 años. Su último trabajo de reciente aparición es "Can't Love, Can't Hurt" y el single de promoción es "Sweet and Low". Pero el tema que hoy les dejo es su mayor éxito hasta el momento; es el pegajoso "Boston" de su disco "All the Stars and Boulevards" del año 2006, y el tema se cansó de sonar en cuanta serie y evento de televisión estadounidense existiera, alcanzando el puesto #34 del Billboard Hot 100.

Boston

In the light of the sun
Is there anyone
Oh it has begun
Oh dear you look so lost
Eyes are red
And tears are shed
This world you must have crossed

She said you don't know me
And you don't even care
Oh yeah, she said...
you don't know me
You don't wear my chains
Oh yeah

Essential yet appealed
Carry all your thoughts
Across an open field
When flowers gaze at you
They're not the only ones
Who cry when they see you

You said you don't know me
And you don't even care
Oh yeah
you said you don't know me
And you don't wear my chains
Oh yeah

She said I think I'll go to Boston
Think I'll start a new life
I think I'll start it over
Where no one knows my name
I'll get out of California
I'm tired of the weather
Think I'll get a lover
And fly him out to Spain
I think I'll go to Boston
I Think that I'm just tired
I Think I need a new town
To leave this all behind
I Think I need a sunrise
I'm tired of a sunset
I hear it's nice in the summer
Some snow would be nice

Oh Yeah

You don't know me
You don't even care

Oh yeah

Boston
Where no one knows my name (yeah)
no one knows my name (yeah)
no one knows my name (yeah)
Boston
Where no one knows my name
