July sun stays up till 10.
We watched it set every night.
12 weeks till it's gone again.
Just like back when you were mine.
I'm so damn freezing all year.
That's why we make out in cars.
60 degrees off the pier.
Yeah, that made us who we are.
You set
your own heart on fire.
When you grow up where it's cold.
Teenage desire.
Yeah, that's Midwest rock and roll.
See the black keys closest they came was Chicago
drove down and got drunk and screamed all
the words till our lungs broke.
Things change and things stay the same.
You moved on.
I
moved away.
It's human nature to wonder and think about if I stay.
But it don't work that
way.
I wrote your name in the snow.
I'll always love what we were longing for something.
I know back when the world didn't hurt.
You set your own heart on fire.
When you grow up where it's cold.
Darkness and teenage desire.
Yeah, that's Midwest rock and roll.
West rock and roll.
We were young and we were living.
We were running.
We were
bad.
