Moorestown

[Verse 1] Her window looked on North Church Street An attic space overgrown A photo book of smiling friends Road maps, New York, Los Angeles [Verse 2] Her walls are Mediterranean blue Her baby sister picked the hue Saltwater taffy, Jersey shore Blue like the fingernails she wore [Verse 3] 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 [Verse 4] 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 [Verse 5] I followed her across the earth Through parks in London, coasts of Perth Newport, Kentucky, New Orleans We shared a million lives, it seems [Verse 6] I slept with her so many nights We moved together heavenly So close the North Pacific slept You too were once beside me [Verse 7] She moved away to Williamsburg Her eyes, sad as a raven My thoughts will pause, my throat will swell When her name is spoken [Verse 8] And looking past the cold long sea I cannot bear to wonder now If the cascading soft lights Are glowing for us in Moorestown
