Lyrics
Well, all my heroes got tired
And all the days, they got short
Well, the love that I dreamt of
They came to me at my worst (you know what?)
Hey, all the nights I don't remember
They are the ones I can't forget
When all your heroes get tired
I'll be something better yet, ow!
I remember driving out of this state
Acting like nothing dies
Until somebody's soul does
Oh, they sold us all kinds of lies
Hey, all the nights I don't remember
They are the ones I can't forget
When all your heroes get tired
I'll be something better yet, hey!
Into focus, I'll be coming
Into focus, I'll be waiting
Into focus, I'll be dreaming
Into focus, I'll be something better yet
Into focus, I'll be coming
Into focus, I'll be waiting
Into focus, I'll be dreaming
Into focus, I'll be something better yet
Into focus, I'll be coming
Into focus, I'll be waiting
Into focus, I'll be dreaming
Into focus, I'll be something better yet
You guys from New York?
I'm from New Jersey, which is so cool that even, um
Even Tom Waits writes songs about New Jersey
Ain't no time for the corner boys
On the street making all that noise (where are you?)
Or the whores on 8th avenue
Lot of you guys tonight
'Cause tonight I wanna be with you
But tonight I wanna take a drive
Cross the GW bridge to the fuckin' Radio City side
Take my babe to the carnival
Where everything's alright
Yeah, here everything's alright
(Wednesday? Wednesday)
We're taking the sadness out of Wednesday night
Fuck, it's Tuesday, isn't it?
I never wanna throw anyone under the bus
But I got bad intel from the band
We're taking the sadness out of a Tuesday night
(We all fuck it)
'Cause I'm here with you
Some kinda dream come true
Sha la la la la la, sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la, this is almost true
I'm in love with a midtown girl (oh, really?)
We're in New York (oh, really?)
Sha la la la la la, sha la la la la la
Sha la la la la la la
Tom Waits is from California, and he wrote that song about Jersey
Uh, this is my song, I wrote about Jersey
And uh, please welcome the finest, Bruce Springsteen
Hey!
