Lyrics
I don’t know just how to fly
But that don’t mean that I ain’t gonna try Bought myself a pair of wings
I’m just working on a couple of things
And then i’m leaving
I don’t like the way you choose
It makes me feel like I am going to lose And you’re always just hanging around You’ll be with me when this all goes down Then i’m leaving
I don’t really know how I could love you again I don’t really know where i’ll start when all this ends
Every once in a while i believe that we’re not dead Every once in a while I wish you were in my bed And not my head.

Jed Gottlieb of the Boston Herald says, "You have to have smarts and heart to turn the same three chords Buddy Holly used into something fresh. On Matt York’s “Boston, Texas,” the singer-songwriter uses basic building blocks — Holly’s chords, Hank Williams’ swagger, Steve Earle’s boozy wisdom, Paul Westerberg’s straight-up-drunk wisdom — to construct an album of beauty, optimism and heartbreak".
