Michigan (Remy’s Tune)

Michigan (Remy’s Tune)

I’ve been sitting here in Grand Rapids
Wondering what I should do
I miss my home and all my friends
But most of all I miss you
I miss the sound of your laughter
Your brown eyes and soft hair
Michigan ain’t no place for a cowboy
‘Specially when you aren’t there
And you aren’t there

Chorus:
The nights are dark in Michigan
When the sun goes down
I start missing you again
I could use some company
I could use a friend
It’s lonesome here in Michigan

I miss those times over at Lupe’s
We’d lie out in the front yard
Telling stories and making plans
It shouldn’t be this damn hard
Grand Rapids isn’t all that grand
It sure as hell ain’t fast
Why is it when you find something that’s real
It never ever lasts
It never lasts

Chorus:
The nights are dark in Michigan
When the sun goes down
I start missing you again
I could use some company
I could use a friend
It’s lonesome here in Michigan

I wonder if you’ll ever visit
Houston’s a long way away
Will the connection fade with time
Like light at the end of day
I can’t bear to think about that
We’ve never been apart
Michigan ain’t no place for a cowboy
When Texas has his heart
You have my heart

Bridge:
I never knew I could miss so bad
Give my love to your mom and dad
If I ever find my way back
I’ll even learn to love your cat
Yeah I’ll even learn to love your cat

Chorus:
The nights are dark in Michigan
When the sun goes down
I start missing you again
I could use some company
I could use a friend
It’s lonesome here in Michigan
