Mirah - New Jersey Turnpike Lyrics

Mirah Lyrics

"New Jersey Turnpike"

New Jersey Turnpike
Driving the bloodline
Back and forth flying
When you were dying

I had a baby
Growing inside me
Steering wheel sighing
Sounds of me crying

A tree, not a headstone
The guy at the funeral home
Asked me how long till
Said he was sorry

My childhood home is
A place where you still live
Filled top to bottom
Nothing forgotten

Always, forever
Will I be tender?
Even though love means
House stays in my dreams

New Jersey Turnpike
Driving the bloodline
Back and forth flying
When you were dying

Always, forever
Will I be tender?
Even though love means
Lasting when life leaves

Always, forever
Always remember
That all the love means
Lasting when life leaves
