Michigan
I haven't seen you in so long I hope that Michigan hasn't changed you I've been hoping you would decide it's time to come home But maybe I've been wrong all along and home is where you are I miss you tonight Northern lights and bitter cold Blankets of snow and ice on the asphalt Six hour flight exchange it all For summer days, a muddy lake A few more hours by my side This distance is killing me Along with your smile and the photograph you sent me Why can't Michigan be a little closer to here? I stare at the sky as the blue gives way To shades of pink and orange The heat rises up from the pavement I'll wish on the first star I see tonight that You were still here I'll recreate your voice By reading through your letters Because faking memories has got to be better than waiting From Letras Mania
