Song language: English
Moorestown |
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 |
