Coastal Reprise (Ely's Song) Lyrics

Down to the West of Roxbury

Amidst the chaos, a quiet peace

Then back to Naptown I return

The heartache of a dream deferred

Under my lonely Chestnut Tree

Consigned to sift through memories

Lost on that Island as before

Eight cycles since I seen this shore

We lost the last boat once again

Dazed by the ghosts of old dear friends

A hotel song and they were gone

Oh life, it echos on and on

And when my mind is well at ease

I know that home is you and me

So let's to the top of Copley Square

We'll face forever together there

Out through the windows into the night

Our songs will light the sacred rites

Amidst a sea of family

We will fulfill the prophecy

Of Stardust and Mycelium
