Why do we always have to resort to pillows and Natalie Portman?歌詞

Summer is ending but unlike usual I don't feel empty
I'm noticing beauty in small things like a 50 cent ring or a simple good morning
In every way I feel lucky and it’s all because of you
I'm longing for Michigan or New York so I can tell you three simple words face to face and we won't have to fight off sleep
Until then I guess we can live on pillows and Natalie Portman and phone calls that last until 7 a.m
