Tell me, tell me why the sun is shining out here in jersey,
When you are nowhere near.

And it's so hard to keep a straight face,
When all i really wanna do is scream.
You'll let me know by letting me go.
It's your way to show you're running the show.

Right now i'm trying to smile.
You know it's been a while.
Right now it's fight or just flee.
You'll always remember me.

Tell me, tell me why the sun is shining out here in jersey,
When you are nowhere near.
It's easier to say i had this all figured out,
But i didn't.
I guess i'm sorry is just too subtle for now.

I felt like falling was my cure.
I guess i'll never know for sure.
You put a spell on me, and now i'm yours.

Right now i'm trying to smile.
You know it's been a while.
Right now it's fight or just flee.
You'll always remember me.

Tell me, tell me why the sun is shining out here in jersey,
When you are nowhere near.
It's easier to say i had this all figured out,
But i didn't.
I guess i'm sorry is just too subtle for now.

My lungs are weak from being scared,
And i can't sleep.

Tell me, tell me why the sun is shining out here in jersey,
When you are nowhere near.
It's easier to say i had this all figured out,
But i didn't.
I guess i'm sorry is just too subtle for now.

Tell me, tell me why the sun is shining out here in jersey,
When you are nowhere near.
