Great Lakes State - The Swellers

I couldn’t make out the signs but I think I’ll be myself tonight

Records break but somehow we make it through

And all we have is the reoccurring dream that we can hold onto

It’s iced over when you go downtown and you know I’m the heat that you needed

I’m awake and you’re a half a world away

It’s not too late when you’re a half a world away

So don’t be scared, I need you

You know that I would meet you there and see you swim across the great lakes

I couldn’t make out the signs but I can’t be by myself tonight

There’s no hope when there’s no one else around

And all we have are these unfamiliar things that we should understand by now

I’m awake and you’re a half a world away

It’s not too late when you’re a half a world away

So don’t be scared, I need you

You know that I would meet you there and see you swim across the great lakes

Or we’ll just let things thaw for now

And it’ll all return to the lake and to the clouds

Records break but somehow we make it through

I need something I can hold onto

I’m awake

So don’t be scared, I need you

You know that I would meet you there and see you swim across the great lakes
