Pre-verse:

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

First Verse:

I don't know why I'm calling you tonight

Guess it's just better than tracing lines

From California to Cicero Coast

Hoping my dear I'll meet your ghost

Shredding the mattress

To fight back the script, You

Convince yourself

I'd soon forget but

What am I without courting regret

You judge your worth by the weight of your bed

Chorus:

Well Jersey it wasn't far enough

(It wasn't far enough)

You live like the devil To get away from us

So darling are you high enough

(Are you high, are you high enough)

And to look down on me And think that you're in heaven

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

Second verse:

I don't know why I'm calling you tonight

Guess it's just better than bleeding lights

Bright enough to burn this distant

Hoping my dear

Oh this time you listen

Do you like waking up with ten year old dreams

And kissing strangers that taste like me

A bottomless ocean shallows the stars

Engulfing our every wish to lead us home

Chorus:

Well Jersey it wasn't far enough

(It wasn't far enough)

You live like the devil To get away from us

So darling are you high enough

(Are you high, are you high enough)

And to look down on me And think that you're in heaven

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

Third Verse:

So darling don't leave me all on my own

The miles mean nothing We're closer than ever before

Too much just happen for me to come home

Would you welcome me Jersey, If I wound up cold at your door

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

Outro:

Well darling don't leave me all in my own

The miles mean nothing We're closer than ever before

Too much just happen 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?
