Last Train To New Jersey

I’ve called to apologize
Won’t you give me five minutes
Though you do not owe me
I know I’ve got some nerve
A man like me deserves to
Be lonely

And I think that you or I
To move on with your life
When your friends say to forget me
Why should you waste your time with a guy
Who’s selfish and petty

But please give me one more chance
Think of our romance
Though I know that I’m not worthy
Say you’ll see me once again
And I’ll be on the last train to New Jersey

Won’t you tell me how you are?
Did you get a job?
Do you still live with your mother?
You said it’s not a crime to live your life
With your son first
So insensitive was I
I never heard you cry
Never noticed you were packing
I never could conceive anyone would leave Manhattan

But now I’ll meet you anywhere
I can pay the fare
There’s no need to be in worse shape
Say you’ll see me once again
And I’ll be on the last train to New Jersey

You’re so quiet are you there?
For I was getting scared
That we might be disconnected
And in a silent way are you trying to say
What I suspected

Time, we’re running out of time
Just say the word and I’ll be on my way to Dover
Meet me face to face and you can tell me
It’s over

But no, you’re hanging up the phone
You strike the final blow
And it’s only 7:3
But now, I’m crying in the rain
Cause I just missed the last train to New Jersey
