Great Lake Love

Now I want to talk to you about a great lake love
It's 30,000 miles, still it's not quite enough
You can't have love if you can't mind the little things
Why waste time on the things that'll just never change
Like me and you and this great lake love

Cause I can't take you with me all of the time
And I can't love you when you're barely alive
And I am weary of this great lake love
Coming down on me

Your eyes went wet when you boarded the train
You want to fight, want to try, but you're not willing to stay
And all the things in our heads we should never say
Like why waste time on a thing that'll just never change
They hit my back while I'm walking away

Cause I would take you with me all of the time
And I would love you, but you're barely alive
And I am weary of this great lake love
Coming down on me

Its a great lake love and it's all I see
