Verse 1:
I walk around Boston I'm downtown part of the skyline
Take a stroll down State street down to the harbor makes a pretty good time.
Boats float in and planes fly out as cars drive by
The city I live in, the city I come from, the city never dies.
Chorus:
It's the silence that the city never hears
The bars of landsdown the men with their beer
Bunker hill stands watching over us tonight
The city towers they glow in the twilight.
Verse 2:
Fanuel hall lit up the shops are closed till tomorrow
Make my way to the commons, light up a J she burns yellow
The Yanks are in town, we all watch on as the Sox bring 'em down
The playoffs are near, the pats run a muck with the rioting crowd
It's the silence that the city never hears
The bars of landsdown the men with the beer
Bunker hill stands watching over us tonight
The city towers they glow in the twilight.
Bridge:
Take a stroll around Boston
Take a stroll around...
Take a stroll around Boston
Look around...
The world grows quiet
Snow masks the ground
I watch it, I love it
But I can't get home now.
I wonder, when will the plows come out?
The blanket grows thicker, the sirens in the distance they run about.
It's the silence that the city never hears
The bars of landsdown the men with the beer
Bunker hill stands watching over us tonight
The city towers they glow in the twilight.
