So Jersey

The sun shines brightly on a Jersey afternoon
Walked in his parents footsteps on his way home from school
Those ties that were so sweet, also burned under his feet
Now he is ready to walk a path that is new

Yet, he can't turn back
He can't turn back
He can't turn back
Running through the crowds, he made it out alive
Betting everything on himself tonight
Tonight

She's driving down the shore on a Jersey afternoon
She's driving down the same old road, her parents took her through
Hypnotized by those broken lines, broken records lost in time
She's turning down the road that is new

And she can't turn back
No, she can't turn back
She can't turn back
Stepping through the darkness, it's a new day light
Betting everything on herself tonight
Tonight

Stepping out of a Asbury Lanes in a midnight snow
Standing in a missile town, feels like it's coming alive
Riots and corruption, New Jersey roots
These songs were the keys to the engines of our growing up

And we wanna say, thanks to the music in our lives
Forgive ourselves for all those lies
Send some love to all the lonely
Don't forget we're all one family
Thanks to the music in our lives, for helping us to survive
Lost in one lonely dream, born to run and live free

The sun shines brightly on us this afternoon
Walking in our own footsteps, a search for something more

We can't turn back
No, we can't turn back
We can't turn back
Stepping through the darkness, into the light
We're betting everything, we're betting everything
We're betting everything on ourselves tonight

Oh, tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

Tonight
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Tonight
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Tonight
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
Tonight
