[Verse 1]
There's pieces of us along every street,
I watch from her pictures,I watch from her pictures,
She hides in the closet and sings me to sleep,
I'll always be with her, she'll always be just out of reach.
[Verse 2]
I don't know why i'm calling you tonight,
Guess it's just better than tracing lines,
From California to sister coast,
Hoping my dear, I'll meet your ghost,
Shredding her mattress to fight back the script you convinced yourself,
I'd soon forget,
But what am I without courting regrets?
You judge your worth by the weight of your bed,
[Chorus]
Well Jersey wasn't far enough, (it wasn't far enough)
You ran like the devil to get away from us,
Oh Darling are you high enough? (are you high enough? are you high enough?)
To look down on me and think that you're in heaven?
[Verse 1]
There's pieces of us along every street,
I watch from her pictures,I watch from her pictures,
She hides in the closet and sings me to sleep,
I'll always be with her, she'll always be just out of reach.
[Verse 3]
I don't know why i'm calling you tonight,
Guess it's just better than bleeding lights,
Bright enough to burn this distance,
Hoping my dear, this time you'll listen,
Do you like waking up with ten year old dreams,
Then kissing strangers that taste like me?
A bottomless ocean swallows the stars
Engulfing our every wish to lead us home.
[Chorus]
Well Jersey wasn't far enough, (it wasn't far enough)
You ran like the devil to get away from us,
Oh Darling are you high enough? (are you high enough? are you high enough?)
To look down on me and think that you're in heaven?
[Verse 1]
There's pieces of us along every street,
I watch from her pictures, I watch from her pictures,
She hides in the closet and sings me to sleep,
I'll always be with her, she'll always be just out of reach.
[Verse 4]
Well darling don't leave me all on my own,
The miles mean nothing we're closer than ever before,
Too much has happened for me to come home,
Would you welcome me Jersey if I wound up cold at your door?
[Verse 1]
There's pieces of us along every street,
I watch from her pictures, I watch from her pictures,
She hides in the closet and sings me to sleep,
I'll always be with her, she'll always be just out of reach.
Well darling don't leave me all on my own,
The miles mean nothing we're closer than ever before,
Too much has happened for me to come home,
Would you welcome me Jersey if I wound up cold at your door?
Would you welcome me Jersey if I wound up cold at your door?
Would you welcome me Jersey if I wound up cold at your door?
