Oh Chicago knows how small we are
How bright she shines in the dark
Oh and though I go, she’s in my heart
Chicago holds me when I fall apart
When you sit on the train are you hit by the way that the city lights surround
you?
Late at night when you ride do you look outside? Do you see it bright like I do?
All the people the places, the city faces they all take me in
All around, all the lost, all the found, all the everything in every instant
Oh Chicago knows how small we are
How bright she shines in the dark
Oh and though I go, she’s in my heart
Chicago holds me when I fall apart
Why do we try to be everything everybody tells us that we should be?
Why do I try to hide in the city lights from the people all around me?
Oh Chicago you know I could never be the one to change it all
But as I walk down the street, I can feel, I can need, I can fade into your
walls
Oh Chicago knows how small we are
How bright she shines in the dark
Oh and though I go, she’s in my heart
Chicago holds me when I fall apart
And though tomorrow’s always on my mind
I guess I gotta give it time…
Oh Chicago knows how small we are
How bright she shines in the dark
Oh and though I go, she’s in my heart
Chicago holds me when I fall
Oh Chicago knows how small we are
How bright she shines in the dark
Oh and though I go, she’s in my heart
Chicago holds me when I fall apart
