Jersey Baby

[Verse 1]
I dreamt that I left you early Easter morning
Sink full of dishes from Saturday night
I tried not to wake you, but I kind of wanted to
You were still sleepin' when I told you goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, mama, I won't regret this
I don't have history doin' right

[Chorus]
New Jersey baby, cul-de-sac queen bee
When is it her turn to get it right?

[Verse 2]
Cold, nearly frozen, walkin' down the aisle
Took the last seat, watched the platform outside
I thought of you naked, I thought of you breathing
I wondered if this was gonna eat me alive

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me, lover, would you still miss me
If you could hold this weight you can't see?

[Chorus]
New Jersey baby, cul-de-sac queen bee
She's gonna go get herself free

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
It doesn't have to be this way
What should people like us say?
It doesn't need to be this way
What will everybody say?

[Chorus]
New Jersey baby, cul-de-sac queen bee
There's still something alive inside of me
