How many miles from Boston are you now?
I wish it was me in those boxes leaving town
I'm standing in your empty room
My eyes can't stand the view
I'm thinking how many miles from Boston are you now?
Missing you is so much harder than it seems
I'm wishing you could turn around, come back to me

But now we start a new adventure
Now we're standing on our own
And your city's gaining another angel as it steals my warmth
Babe, I know you hate the winter
'Cause it'll never feel like home
So is it selfish of me to say
I hope it's snowing when you get to L.A

I'm stuck in a vicious cycle of the past
I won't even wash the towel that you used here last
I can't help but feel alone
I'm living like I'm a ghost
And all of these streets of Boston turn to dust
Missing you is harder than it ought to be
But loving you helps remind me

And now we start a new adventure
Now we're standing on our own
And your city's gaining another angel as it steals my warmth
Babe, I know you hate the winter
'Cause it'll never feel like home
So is it selfish of me to say
I hope it's snowing when you get to L.A

Loving you is coast to coast
Nothing can break this
Nothing can break this
I've heard how this story goes
But nothing can break this
Not even distance
'Cause my love for you will grow
Higher than those palm trees will ever know
Know, ooh, ooh, ooh

And though we start a new adventure
Though we're standing on our own
Though your city's gaining another angel as it steals my warmth
I know you've got dreams to follow
And I'm here chasing my own
But I'll be counting down the days
'Cause I can't wait until I get to L.A
I'm counting down the days until I get to L.A
