Midwestern Boy
Come to me, midwestern boySummer skin, warm as the cornOne slow dance on a moonlight beachDressed in just what you were born inTall and lanky by the lakeSmilin' sideways, a freckled faceWait for me, midwestern boyAnd I will meet you in that placePlay those songs that tell a storyGreat beginnings and the end of childhoodWhat a time to come of ageFree love and the war a-ragingI don't know the plans you madeGone to college or to dodge the draftI just needed someone to run toUntil I finally turned eighteen[Do you remember when ... ]Perhaps the east coast or the westJust anywhere that's not so in betweenI'll see you, midwestern boyThere's still time to have a dreamSongtexteFireflies light up the darkSkin so brown and hearts so openNow close your eyes, midwestern boyAnd I will be with you tonight Aus Songtexte Mania
