Mark Kozelek - Moorestown lyrics

Her window looked on North Church Street An attic space overgrown A photo book of smiling friends Road maps, New York, Los Angeles Her walls are Mediterranean blue Her baby sister picked the hue Saltwater taffy, Jersey shore Blue like the fingernails she wore Her house is not far from the school Her mom taught on the Hudson Her dad's guitar sings open-tuned Reverberates up through the floor Our love grew more one summer there Where we'd spend our days just driving around Old parking lots and neighborhoods Are framed and charmed in Moorestown I followed her across the earth Through parks in London, coasts of Perth Newport, Kentucky, New Orleans We shared a million lives, it seems I slept with her so many nights We moved together heavenly So close the North Pacific slept You too were once beside me She moved away to Williamsburg Her eyes, sad eyes were waving My thoughts will pause, my throat will swell When her name is spoken And looking past the cold long sea I cannot bear to wonder now If the cascading soft lights Are glowing for us in Moorestown
