Featuring Hannah Winkler

I left my bottle of rum in the Airbnb
Hope the next guest is a pirate like me
And I cried all the way from Ocean Grove back to NYC

Mom and Dad headed home the day before
I kicked around and drank my way up and down the shore
But this town is haunted by all the ghosts of all the use from all the befores

And if you love somebody set ’em free
Unless that somebody is me
Lock me up and throw the key
Promise me that you’ll never leave

New Jersey Transit is a great place to be sad
You can stare out the window racked with guilt and feeling bad
About the time you raised your voice
And were mean for no reason to your dad

I hate myself when I act that way
With every passing year I swear I’m gonna make a change
But I guess there are some ski slopes to warn to avoid
Paved deep in my brain

And if you love somebody set ’em free
(And if you love somebody set ’em free)
Unless that somebody is me
(Unless that somebody is me)
Lock me up and throw the key
Promise me that you’ll never leave

It’s for the best man I could use some drying out
This summer was a blur now fall is coming like a cloud
And a rainstorm at a picnic oh there’s lightning oh there’s thunder
You better watch out

Used to be on the sad days like this
I knew when I got home I’d get a hug and a kiss
“Hey Johnny don’t you worry it’s okay”
(Hey Johnny don’t you worry it’s okay)
I guess there’s somethings I’m always gonna miss

And if you love somebody set ’em free
(And if you love somebody set ’em free)
Unless that somebody is me
(Unless that somebody is me)
Lock me up and throw the key
(Lock me up and throw the key)
Promise me that you’ll never leave
(Promise me that you’ll never leave)

Please don’t leave me
