To be alone

I feel asleep to this song last night
In a happy comfortable way
I miss Illinois and Iowa, and the mid-west in general



To Be Alone With You
by Sufjan Stevens:



I'd swim across lake Michigan
I'd sell my shoes
I'd give my body to be back again
In the rest of the room

To be alone with you
To be alone with you
To be alone with you
To be alone with you

You gave your body to the lonely
They took your clothes
You gave up a wife and a family
You gave your goals

To be alone with me
To be alone with me
To be alone with me
You went up on a tree

To be alone with me you went up on the tree

I'll never know the man who loved me
