about

sufjan stevens wrote a song called 'the upper peninsula'. i didn't like it. so here's a better one.

lyrics

the upper peninsula at 3am
i'm waiting for my second wind to kick in
and all that i want is to kiss you and then
kiss again

and all of the stars are out for us to see
a romantic moment that's framed perfectly
suspecting instead that it's not meant to be
you and me

driving for hours with hours to go
your head tilted back leaned against the window
and i have to look out for deer on the road
driving slow

surrounded by universe til nothing remains
but new constellations waiting to be named
and all that it takes are the right words to say
what a shame

there are tears
in your eyes
and you won't
tell me why
and i'm a-
fraid to pry
so you cry

you've never been as far as this
