"You don’t know me and you don’t wear my chains"

"I think I’ll start a new life
I think I’ll start it over
Where no one knows my name"


Augustana: Boston




In the light of the sun
Is there anyone?
Oh, it has begun

Oh dear, you look so lost
Your eyes are red when tears are shed
Swirls you must have crossed, you said

‘You don’t know me, you don’t even care."
Oh yeah, she said.
"You don’t know me and you don’t wear my chains" Oh yeah…

The 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, she said,
"You don’t know me and you don’t wear my chains." Oh yeah...

She said: I think I’m going to Boston
I 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
I think I’ll get a lover
I’ll fly ‘em out to Spain

I think I’ll go to Boston
I think that I was 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
Here it’s nice in the summer
Some snow would be nice, oh yeah...

Boston
Where no one knows my name
Yeah...no one knows my name
No one knows my name...
