Milwaukee

from Easier, Better by Calamity Janes and the Fratney Street Band

lyrics

I left you to see what I'd miss.

Two months gone, I wanna see you again.

Even though the days are cold,

I wanna feel the snow, I wanna feel the cold.

Do you miss me at all? Do you think I'm having a ball without you?

I dream of you every night.

I just want your familiarity to hold me tight.

When will I go home? I wanna go.

When will I go home? 'Cause I wanna go now to sweet Milwaukee.

I wanna feel the snow. I wanna feel the cold.

'Cause you're all I know. You're all I know.

Even though the weather's nicer out here,

I'd rather be cold with you. And be with something I know.

I wanna feel the snow. I wanna feel the cold.

I took you for granted and it’s all I can take.

I wanted to see an ocean instead of a lake.

The laughs I remember, the promises made.

The people I love most, my heart that will break if I don't come home.
