Great American Novel

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a story in your voice And in the way you say goodnight Leaves me wanting more Lingers in my mind Lingers in my mind [Pre-Chorus] It was the golden age being lost in love You wrote the perfect page Then you ripped it up You ripped it up [Chorus] Now, I'm waiting for a train New York to Boston It's not supposed to be this way It's not supposed to be this way It's the price I have to pay Throw roses at the rich girls I start to feel ok When I start to feel ok [Verse 2] There's a song inside my head Plays on constantly Loud enough to wake the dead It's a song free with me It's a song free with me Those were the sweetest nights Learning to make love And all your sunken eyes Being too far gone Too far gone [Chorus] Now, I'm waiting for a train New York to Boston It's not supposed to be this way It's not supposed to be this way It's the price I have to pay Throw roses at the rich girls I start to feel ok When I start to feel ok
