Midwest Lyrics

Stay strong for me
At least that's what I'll tell her
'Cause someone's gotta be
If I could let you in my head
You could see what I've been painting, 'cause it's bittersweet
Letting go of the brush you've given me

We'll hang it up for you
When we're back in your Midwest living room
A picture point of view while I waited for you
Waiting for something to get me through

I've lived these past few months now, stumbling like a ghost
I'll miss you sleeping next to me naked
I'll hang it up for you if we make it

White roses, holding angelic hue just like hers
Like it did in the roaring twenties
I'll save up all week to buy her flowers
And I'll hold it all back, but please just know that

We'll hang it up for you
When we're back in your Midwest living room
A picture point of view while I waited for you
Waiting for something to get me through

I've lived these past few months now, stumbling like a ghost
I'll miss you sleeping next to me naked
I'll hang it up for you if we make it

So come back, please just come back
I'll bury what I know we're missing
And the summer nights we could be living in

We'll hang it up for you
When we're back in your Midwest living room
A picture point of view while I waited for you
Waiting for something to get me through

So come back, so come back
Please just come back, please just come back
I'll miss you sleeping next to me naked
I'll hang it up for you if we make it
