all the cities in the world

and so very little time and

so many different girls...

all you have to do is find them

there's a wealth of opportunity you plan your trips accordingly

a pity but the pretty ones are usually more touristy

say how'd you like to run away from these machines?

everywhere the spies are printing out your dreams

seven stops in seven different countries

seven page itineraries memories thick as bloody marys jesus jospeh bloody hell

right now were here in boston

in love with downtown crossing

new york will still be there in the morning

come back to bed my darling

i had julians and steves

you had julias and jeanettes

you wear your terror on your sleeve

for all the men i haven't met (yet)

i had oliver in potsdam you had elanor in amsterdam

we're keeping track so carefully we've missed the state we're in completely

honestly your foot is out the door

and i've got scores of offers elsewhere and keep both

feet planted firmly in the air

and tomorrow you can totally erase me from your mind but trust me everything is fine

because right now we're here in boston

in my apartment in the south end

forget your year in london

come back to bed my darling

you can put the details in a letter

the more embarrassing the better

right now i can be happy if i choose to

i know that in the morning i will lose you....

and maybe you'll go mad

and maybe ill go gray

and pack up to berlin

or maybe it wont matter anyway

we'll find out that your mom was right

and you'll admit you're really gay

and maybe ill wake up

in a city far away

or maybe we'll make up

and buy a house and have a couple kids

and labrador and microwave but anyway

right now we're here in boston

in eden where you almost pulled your pants down

don't worry who these jokes will all be lost on

come back to bed my darling

there is nothing in the world that we can count on

even that we will wake up is an assumption

but i know for a fact that i loved someone

and for about a year he lived in boston...
