Boston – Hitch A Ride Lyrics

How does this work?
Caution: You are now annotating this song as
[Verse 1]
Day is night in New York City
Smoke, like water, runs inside
Steel idle trees to pity
Every living thing that's died

[Hook]
Going to hitch a ride
Head for the other side
Leave it all behind
Never change my mind
Going to sail away
Sun lights another day
Freedom on my mind
Carry me away for the last time
Oh yeah

[Verse 2]
Life is like the coldest winter
People freeze the tears I cry
Words of hail their minds are into
I've got to crack this ice and fly

[Hook]

[Organ Solo]

[Guitar Solo]

About Hitch A Ride

This song has a much darker tone than the others on the album. The lead singer is reflecting on how depressed he is in life and even contemplates the thought of death in the chorus.
