You left your heartbeat, on my sweater
I should have known, I should have known better
My jeans and shirt, will always hurt, cuz they remember
I held you tight, all thru the night, in late November
You wanted more, you wanted someone better
You left your heartbeat, heartbeat on my sweater
There will be a time,
where even I, can live without you
but all my clothes, will always know
you’re just a girl, just a girl from Jersey
You tramp around, with all my friends, so I can see you
you hope to see, the hurt in me, cuz I want you
but not tonight, I’m holding tight, to my sweater
you’re not the only one, looking for better
so stay awhile, and show your smile, it won’t hurt me
cuz you’re just a girl, just a girl from Jersey
Don’t lie again, come to me, and beg for mercy,
We’ve been here before, you at my door
You’re just a girl, just a girl from Jersey
Don’t be angry
Don’t be sad
You’re still
The best girl
I ever had
You made the sunshine
For all to see
You were my girl, my girl from Jersey
There will be a time,
where even I, can live without you
but all my clothes, will always know
you’re just a girl, a girl from Jersey …
all my clothes, will always know
you’re just a girl, a girl from Jersey.
