lyrics

milwaukee is a lonely place:
it’s cold here every night.
all these people, cold and gloomy,
as they wander, as they fight,
as they search to find a light,
i see you…
you…
ooh.

milwaukee is a lonely place:
i’m working hard, you know.
to get you here, so we can start anew
wipe what happened long ago,
take it simple, take it slow.
i need you…
you...
ooh.

the shining seas wait for you
in the land of the free.
this dream is ours, and ours to share forevermore
if you’d come here soon and stay here, with me.

milwaukee is a lonely place:
at least, it seems to be.
‘cause when i walk the streets all by myself,
there’s a couple that i see
holding hands so lovingly,
couldn’t that be you and me?
ooh.
ooh.

well, maybe
milwaukee isn’t lonely, after all.
maybe it’s me.
