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 around 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
Well Chicago you know I can 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
you know tomorrow's always on my mind
guess I got to 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 faaaalllll
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
(Fade out)
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
