1 Together
Its a shame the lights dont shine on you back in Jersey. But Broad Street and Walnut are looking real bright. And I think, maybe had I been a better companion, you wouldn`t need this rescuing tonight. I can hear you breath. I can smell your sheets from New Jersey. And I`ve got a mind to get out of bed right now and come over (and see you) I cant imagine you all alone. In the big city on your own. Whos going to protect you? I couldnt be there as much as I wanted to. But you dont need me. I just need you. I hope you want me to come over right now cause Im going to.
