Mississippi Air

I drove my brother's truck from the pool
Lavender bikini in the hot air, but the wind was cool
Tug on the sleeves
Of the button-up I wore when I met your friends
Some things you don’t ever think will end

And I don’t miss you In the city
But I miss you when I’m here
I was saying you were pretty
Sufjans Stevens on the pier
Way before 23
Real estate and grown-up things
Felt our feelings like my hair felt the humidity

I
Drive
Home sometimes
Just to feel likе that
Just to bring me back

And I swear to the Mississippi air
That I can brеathe again
Until I leave again

Poetry videos at landing way
You FaceTime my family by the lake
Couple bandaids far away
Harry said it’s not same

And now you’re 23
School degrees and grown-up things
But I still see us sneaking into the symphony

I
Drive
Home sometimes
Just to feel like that
Just to bring me back

And I swear to the Mississippi air
That I can breathe again
Until I leave again

And I don’t miss you In the city
But I miss you when I’m here
In my lavender bikini
Right beside you on the pier

I
Drive
Home sometimes
Just to feel like that
Just to bring me back

And I swear to the Mississippi air
That I can breathe again
Until I leave again
