The Slow Burn: Music
Midwest Flood
(The Slow Burn)
(Paul D'Andrea)
"Midwest Flood" by Paul D'Andrea
I feel the urge to compromise
But the words disappear as soon as you talk
The issues start to multiply
Then my past rushes in like a Midwest Flood
(chorus)
Why won’t I change?
The weakest bone inside of me
Always gets the best of me
So I keep losing this game of love
Nieces and nephews and my friends’ kids
I’m the fun one that they go to games with
I know the jokes that make them all smile
But the subtle things about my age I seem to miss
(chorus)
Why won’t I change?
The weakest bone inside of me
Always gets the best of me
So I keep losing this game of love
