Boston


Today is the day we bond together Today is the day we bond together, Its times like these that we grow closer, We must take the hand of the person to our right, And tell them that we love them, To our left we must hug them and never let go, Never let go Boston, As today we shall not forget, Yesterday we were Brandeisians, Yesterday we were Harvardians, Yesterday we were MIT-ites, But today we are Bostonians, This city is going through perilous times, And it’s now that we need to come together, We need to take our neighbors and take our friends, And we need stand tall, Boston, We need to Stand Tall, Today we hold each other in fear, But tomorrow we will strengthen up, We will bury our friends and mourn for strangers, And we will mourn like they are our kin, We will support those who are weak, Boston, we will hold our heads up high, Because today we hold one another, Because today we will defend our loved ones, Because today we stand together, Because today we are united, Today We Are Bostonians, And today we will never let go,
