I'll never forget those aimless years
Street sounds swirling through my mind
Trouble was often in the air
So we fought to forget our despair
I'm a street player
And I'll play you a song
'Cause you know, my heart & soul
Will carry, carry on
Carry on
Carry on
Carry on
City life's the only way
Street corners and billiard halls was our home away
Lessons learned still help me today
I'm a street player
I've seen it all
Hit men, thieves and many a brawl
But as you see I still stand tall
It was such a small space in time
I never knew that I would find
A musical path for all to see
Anxiety into ecstasy
I'm a street player
I'm a street player
I'm a street player
I'm a street player
I'm a street player
I've seen it all
Hit men, thieves and many a brawl
But as you see I still stand tall
It was such a small space in time
I never knew that I would find
A musical path for all to see
Anxiety into ecstasy
I'm a street player
I'm a street player
I'm a street player
I'm a street player
Mama Take lyrics - Chicago
On the road
But I won't be gone too long
Babe, I'm leavin' you tomorrow
On my way
And you know you make me strong
I'll be thinking 'bout you
all night long
[Chorus]
Mama take just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit from my heart
Mama shake just a little bit
Mama brake just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit from my heart
All alone
And, I'm feelin' down today
Won't let nothin' come between us
Say the words
And the words are meant to say
I'll be thinkin' about you everyday
Mama take just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit from my heart, oh, oh
Mama shake just a little bit
Mama brake just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit from my heart
From my heart
I believe that we belong beyond a doubt
If we have a change of heart
We can always change our mind
And I know we'll work it out
I can see that it's the only way to go
It's the only chance I get
It's the only way you'll know
That I love to love you
Mighty love
Gettin' hard to find today
I believe in you forever
Say the words
And the words are meant to say
I'll be thinkin' about you everyday
[Repeat Chorus]
But I won't be gone too long
Babe, I'm leavin' you tomorrow
On my way
And you know you make me strong
I'll be thinking 'bout you
all night long
[Chorus]
Mama take just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit from my heart
Mama shake just a little bit
Mama brake just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit from my heart
All alone
And, I'm feelin' down today
Won't let nothin' come between us
Say the words
And the words are meant to say
I'll be thinkin' about you everyday
Mama take just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit from my heart, oh, oh
Mama shake just a little bit
Mama brake just a little bit
Mama take just a little bit from my heart
From my heart
I believe that we belong beyond a doubt
If we have a change of heart
We can always change our mind
And I know we'll work it out
I can see that it's the only way to go
It's the only chance I get
It's the only way you'll know
That I love to love you
Mighty love
Gettin' hard to find today
I believe in you forever
Say the words
And the words are meant to say
I'll be thinkin' about you everyday
[Repeat Chorus]

She's fine, so fine
And I think I'm going to lose my mind
So high, so high,

Window Dreamin' lyrics - Chicago
Lookin' out by my window,
Thinking 'bout you all the time,
Wish you were here with me
Right here by my side,
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
Every time I find myself on the road
Miss you holdin' me tight
Flop down in my easy chair,
Makes me feel alright
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
Gigs are fun, when they're done,
Feel so down, act like a clown,
Company's great, but when it's late,
I'm lookin' for the phone
I feel so alone--so alone
Knowin' the way we both feel,
O know you're always gonna be my friend
Dig, your face, Lord, it's real
Someday I'm never gonna go again,
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
Gigs are fun, when they're done,
Feel so down, act like a clown,
Company's great, but when it's late,
I'm lookin' for the phone
I feel so alone--
So all alone
Thinking 'bout you all the time,
Wish you were here with me
Right here by my side,
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
Every time I find myself on the road
Miss you holdin' me tight
Flop down in my easy chair,
Makes me feel alright
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
Gigs are fun, when they're done,
Feel so down, act like a clown,
Company's great, but when it's late,
I'm lookin' for the phone
I feel so alone--so alone
Knowin' the way we both feel,
O know you're always gonna be my friend
Dig, your face, Lord, it's real
Someday I'm never gonna go again,
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
'Cause I'm window, window dreamin'
Gigs are fun, when they're done,
Feel so down, act like a clown,
Company's great, but when it's late,
I'm lookin' for the phone
I feel so alone--
So all alone
Paradise Alley lyrics - Chicago
Come on in, have a look around
Hang your hat and find a chair
The pretty women smile at you
The party's just beginning
There's music everywhere
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
Brothers got to stick together here
Fight with one, you fight with three
The family blood is thick as mud
Day to day the world keeps spinning
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
It reminds you of who you used to be
And who you are, and who you'll always be
It finds you in pursuit of dreams
And hopeless schemes
Life is richer than it seems
Nothing like being in a woman's arms
The one you love, the one you want
There's one small problem, who can she be
I feel like winning her in paradise alley
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
I'm gonna take you there
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
I'm gonna take you there
Take you to the paradise
Hang your hat and find a chair
The pretty women smile at you
The party's just beginning
There's music everywhere
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
Brothers got to stick together here
Fight with one, you fight with three
The family blood is thick as mud
Day to day the world keeps spinning
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
It reminds you of who you used to be
And who you are, and who you'll always be
It finds you in pursuit of dreams
And hopeless schemes
Life is richer than it seems
Nothing like being in a woman's arms
The one you love, the one you want
There's one small problem, who can she be
I feel like winning her in paradise alley
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
I'm gonna take you there
Paradise alley
Paradise alley
I'm gonna take you there
Take you to the paradise
Aloha Mama lyrics - Chicago
Aloha mama don't go away
Aloha mama I want you to stay
Aloha mama won't you treat me right
I need you tender woman won't you hold me tight
Surfridin' sister I wanna taste your love
Le's make it in the garden beneath the stars above
Aloha mama don't go away
Aloha mama I want you to stay

Surfridin' sister I got to fly away

Reruns lyrics - Chicago
We've been through it all before
But you brought it up once more
I let you down, you can't forget it
You forgave me
You won't let it fade away
I will not discuss the past
Life goes by us much too fast
To look behind and dwell on trouble
Someday it could
Burst our bubble by and by
All we have together
Would be lost unless we try
Make the most of each day
And to let our feelings fly
We've been through it all before
But you brought it up once more
I let you down, you can't forget it
You forgave me
You won't let it fade away
Put it all behind us
Will I always have to pay
Something I'm not proud of
Is there nothing I can say
I know you are angry
I know you're for real
I know how much I hurt you darling
That's the way you feel
I will not discuss the past
Life goes by us much too fast
To look behind and dwell on trouble
Someday it could
Burst our bubble by and by
Put it all behind us
Will I always have to pay
Something I'm not proud of
Is there nothing I can say
All we have together
Would be lost unless we try
Make the most of each day
And to let our feelings fly
But you brought it up once more
I let you down, you can't forget it
You forgave me
You won't let it fade away
I will not discuss the past
Life goes by us much too fast
To look behind and dwell on trouble
Someday it could
Burst our bubble by and by
All we have together
Would be lost unless we try
Make the most of each day
And to let our feelings fly
We've been through it all before
But you brought it up once more
I let you down, you can't forget it
You forgave me
You won't let it fade away
Put it all behind us
Will I always have to pay
Something I'm not proud of
Is there nothing I can say
I know you are angry
I know you're for real
I know how much I hurt you darling
That's the way you feel
I will not discuss the past
Life goes by us much too fast
To look behind and dwell on trouble
Someday it could
Burst our bubble by and by
Put it all behind us
Will I always have to pay
Something I'm not proud of
Is there nothing I can say
All we have together
Would be lost unless we try
Make the most of each day
And to let our feelings fly
Loser With A Broken Heart lyrics - Chicago
Many miles of memories
Many tears I can't forget
But I know you live inside me yet
Oh
Many hours to contemplate
Many dreams I can't recall
Many nights I've felt I was too small
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, yea
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, yea
It's a hard and bitter world
When you face reality
And it's hard to be who you want to be
Oh
Many miles of memories
Catch the wind and blow away
But I know that it's over, over anyway
Oh
But tonight I sit and wonder why
You left me here
After all this time I don't know why
You left me here
If it's all behind me
You know you'll find me
Oh
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, yea
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, oh yea
But tonight I sit and wonder why
You left me here
After all this time I wonder why
Wonder why
You left me here
If it's all behind me
You know you'll find me
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, yea
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, oh yea
I'm a loser
I'm a loser
I'm a loser
I'm a loser
Many tears I can't forget
But I know you live inside me yet
Oh
Many hours to contemplate
Many dreams I can't recall
Many nights I've felt I was too small
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, yea
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, yea
It's a hard and bitter world
When you face reality
And it's hard to be who you want to be
Oh
Many miles of memories
Catch the wind and blow away
But I know that it's over, over anyway
Oh
But tonight I sit and wonder why
You left me here
After all this time I don't know why
You left me here
If it's all behind me
You know you'll find me
Oh
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, yea
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, oh yea
But tonight I sit and wonder why
You left me here
After all this time I wonder why
Wonder why
You left me here
If it's all behind me
You know you'll find me
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, yea
Nothing more than a loser with a broken heart, oh yea
I'm a loser
I'm a loser
I'm a loser
I'm a loser
Life Is What It Is lyrics - Chicago
Why do we have to go and face the same routine
And the traffic jams and crowded street's a real
Neurotic scene
I don't know, why do we take it each day, yeah
Why does my girl tell me she's got to
Have her way
Out all night, come home to fight
What am I to say
I don't know, why do we take it each day
Life is what it is
Who wants to try not to believe
That's the way it is
Oh, oh
I don't know why what you feel inside
Days go on
Love is something that you just can't hide
If it's wrong
Then you'll want to know, you don't know why
I sing a song
And it helps me yet I'll get by
At times
Lost in time sometimes your mind unwinds
Sun does shine
But no pleasure from your beauty's mine
Like champagne wine
A bitter taste that's so refined
Life it's fine
You always pay for what's behind
Why do I have to go and face the same routine
And the traffic jams and crowded street's a real
Neurotic scene
I don't know, why do we take it each day, yeah
Life is what it is
Who wants to try not to believe
That's the way it is
And the traffic jams and crowded street's a real
Neurotic scene
I don't know, why do we take it each day, yeah
Why does my girl tell me she's got to
Have her way
Out all night, come home to fight
What am I to say
I don't know, why do we take it each day
Life is what it is
Who wants to try not to believe
That's the way it is
Oh, oh
I don't know why what you feel inside
Days go on
Love is something that you just can't hide
If it's wrong
Then you'll want to know, you don't know why
I sing a song
And it helps me yet I'll get by
At times
Lost in time sometimes your mind unwinds
Sun does shine
But no pleasure from your beauty's mine
Like champagne wine
A bitter taste that's so refined
Life it's fine
You always pay for what's behind
Why do I have to go and face the same routine
And the traffic jams and crowded street's a real
Neurotic scene
I don't know, why do we take it each day, yeah
Life is what it is
Who wants to try not to believe
That's the way it is

Alive Again lyrics - Chicago
Yesterday I would not have believed
That tomorrow the sun would shine
Then one day you came into my life
I am alive again I am alive again
All the empty yesterdays have disappeared
Now that you have filled my life with love
No one else could ever mean so much to me
Every day my high lasts longer
As our love grows ever stronger
Yesterday I would not have believed
That tomorrow the sun would shine
Then one day you came into my life
I am alive again I am alive again
When you gave your love to me you changed my life
Dreams that once seemed hopeless come with ease
Thank you girl for being just the way you are
I would never try to change you
All I live for is to love you
I'm feeling alive again
I'm feeling alive again
That tomorrow the sun would shine
Then one day you came into my life
I am alive again I am alive again
All the empty yesterdays have disappeared
Now that you have filled my life with love
No one else could ever mean so much to me
Every day my high lasts longer
As our love grows ever stronger
Yesterday I would not have believed
That tomorrow the sun would shine
Then one day you came into my life
I am alive again I am alive again
When you gave your love to me you changed my life
Dreams that once seemed hopeless come with ease
Thank you girl for being just the way you are
I would never try to change you
All I live for is to love you
I'm feeling alive again
I'm feeling alive again
The Greatest Love On Earth lyrics - Chicago
It's a long distance love affair
Tender are the moments that they rarely share
They hope their time will come someday
When together with the fraulein they'll steal away
It's the greatest love on earth
He's come from so far away to see
Is this his lifelong dream or just a fantasy
He's dying inside dying of frustration reaching out in hope
And he wants so hard to hide inside of her soul
'Cause that's what he needs to cope
It's the greatest love on earth
Her lovin' eyes are all he wants to see
And he knows that in her heart there lies his destiny
When she holds him in her arms he can feel the warmth
Of her gentle ways
And when she kissed him it was just like making music
That no one else will ever play
It's the greatest love on earth
He's come from so far away to see
Is this his lifelong dream or just a fantasy
It's the greatest love on earth
He's come from so far away to see
Is this his lifelong dream or just another fantasy
Tender are the moments that they rarely share
They hope their time will come someday
When together with the fraulein they'll steal away
It's the greatest love on earth
He's come from so far away to see
Is this his lifelong dream or just a fantasy
He's dying inside dying of frustration reaching out in hope
And he wants so hard to hide inside of her soul
'Cause that's what he needs to cope
It's the greatest love on earth
Her lovin' eyes are all he wants to see
And he knows that in her heart there lies his destiny
When she holds him in her arms he can feel the warmth
Of her gentle ways
And when she kissed him it was just like making music
That no one else will ever play
It's the greatest love on earth
He's come from so far away to see
Is this his lifelong dream or just a fantasy
It's the greatest love on earth
He's come from so far away to see
Is this his lifelong dream or just another fantasy

Hot Streets lyrics - Chicago
Hot streets down below me
All the people moving slowly
As they search each other's faces
For a trace of hope
Concealed beneath their laughter
And it's only love they're after
Mountains lie before me
Skies ahead are looking stormy
As the highway driver braces
For a race with time
To reach a destination
Of his own imagination
A child of the sky
A rider on the wind
I can fly
A prisoner of time
A dimensional crime
Lost am I
Winter stars above me
With a woman who can love me
And moonlight swept embraces
Fill my space with joy and peace
The sweet vibrations
Of a lover's celebration
All the people moving slowly
As they search each other's faces
For a trace of hope
Concealed beneath their laughter
And it's only love they're after
Mountains lie before me
Skies ahead are looking stormy
As the highway driver braces
For a race with time
To reach a destination
Of his own imagination
A child of the sky
A rider on the wind
I can fly
A prisoner of time
A dimensional crime
Lost am I
Winter stars above me
With a woman who can love me
And moonlight swept embraces
Fill my space with joy and peace
The sweet vibrations
Of a lover's celebration
Take A Chance lyrics - Chicago
Take a chance dream a dream
Lay a bet down on me

Gone Long Gone lyrics - Chicago
I thought for the rest of my life
You'd see me through it
Guess all along I knew it
Nothing mattered everything was all right
When you saw to it
Before I knew it you were gone long gone
You said you would always be there
Well I believed you
I was a fool to need you
Gave my love then I gave you my heart
And then you flew it
Before I knew it
You were gone long gone
Hard facing another day
Just crying the night away
Said more than I meant to say
When I knew that you were gone
I thought for the rest of my life
You'd see me through it
Yes all along I knew it
Didn't matter and it didn't seem right
And then you flew it
Before I knew it you were gone long gone.
You were gone long gone
You'd see me through it
Guess all along I knew it
Nothing mattered everything was all right
When you saw to it
Before I knew it you were gone long gone
You said you would always be there
Well I believed you
I was a fool to need you
Gave my love then I gave you my heart
And then you flew it
Before I knew it
You were gone long gone
Hard facing another day
Just crying the night away
Said more than I meant to say
When I knew that you were gone
I thought for the rest of my life
You'd see me through it
Yes all along I knew it
Didn't matter and it didn't seem right
And then you flew it
Before I knew it you were gone long gone.
You were gone long gone
Ain't It Time lyrics - Chicago
Oh what a lucky day
Things are going my way
Sun is arising mesmerizing everything I say
People all around this uptight town
Someone's gonna recognize me
Ain't it time
Dues I've been paying for so long only making me stronger
Lady luck won't you please come to me I can't wait any longer
I spend all my time writing notes and rhyme
Tryin' to find new dimensions
Ain't it time
Time for movin' on
Time enough to grow
Time enough to find myself
Everything's okay
What a lucky day
Time enough to play my guitar
Competition everywhere is getting all of us down
I've been makin' all the rounds I feel like a train on the wrong track
Don't get lost 'cause you might get caught going out
The wrong door now
Ain't it time
Time for movin' on
Time enough to grow
Time enough to find myself
Everything's okay
What a lucky day
Time enough to play my guitar
Things are going my way
Sun is arising mesmerizing everything I say
People all around this uptight town
Someone's gonna recognize me
Ain't it time
Dues I've been paying for so long only making me stronger
Lady luck won't you please come to me I can't wait any longer
I spend all my time writing notes and rhyme
Tryin' to find new dimensions
Ain't it time
Time for movin' on
Time enough to grow
Time enough to find myself
Everything's okay
What a lucky day
Time enough to play my guitar
Competition everywhere is getting all of us down
I've been makin' all the rounds I feel like a train on the wrong track
Don't get lost 'cause you might get caught going out
The wrong door now
Ain't it time
Time for movin' on
Time enough to grow
Time enough to find myself
Everything's okay
What a lucky day
Time enough to play my guitar
Love Was New lyrics - Chicago
Remember when we were first falling in love
How we planned all the things we would do
Beautiful days and the nights all ablaze
Hoping our dreams would come true
Love was new
Remember the house at the top of the hill
How the sunlight caressed all the trees
I played all my music I sang you my love
The chiming church bells rode the breeze
Love was new
Time has a way of obscuring our memories
And good times are hard to recall
Basic survival and day to day living
Leaves no time for romance at all
I just wanted to say I'm still falling in love
Every day with you, every day
Remember that Christmas with just a few friends
And the whole town was covered with snow
We laughed and we loved as we skied in the sun
It seems such a long time ago
Love was new
Something you said one night started me thinking
How sweet love is as it begins
Taken for granted it slips through your fingers
And leaves you on needles and pins
But there ain't no way baby that we'd let that happen
Our love will always be new
I just wanted to say I'm still falling in love
Every day with you, falling in love every day with you
How we planned all the things we would do
Beautiful days and the nights all ablaze
Hoping our dreams would come true
Love was new
Remember the house at the top of the hill
How the sunlight caressed all the trees
I played all my music I sang you my love
The chiming church bells rode the breeze
Love was new
Time has a way of obscuring our memories
And good times are hard to recall
Basic survival and day to day living
Leaves no time for romance at all
I just wanted to say I'm still falling in love
Every day with you, every day
Remember that Christmas with just a few friends
And the whole town was covered with snow
We laughed and we loved as we skied in the sun
It seems such a long time ago
Love was new
Something you said one night started me thinking
How sweet love is as it begins
Taken for granted it slips through your fingers
And leaves you on needles and pins
But there ain't no way baby that we'd let that happen
Our love will always be new
I just wanted to say I'm still falling in love
Every day with you, falling in love every day with you
No Tell Lover lyrics - Chicago
Pretty smile lovely face and a warm breeze now I need you lady
You're my no tell lover
Every night in a different place I'll meet you tender lady
You're my no tell lover
Everyone keeps tellin' me that this affair's not meant to be
Even though I need you night and day
Walk away if you see me coming, even if it's you I'm lovin'
Every minute is an hour every day's a lonely lifetime
You're my no tell lover
The little time that we spend together just can't last forever
You're my no tell lover
Everyone keeps tellin' me that this affair's not meant to be
Even though I need you night and day
Walk away if you see me coming even though it's you I'm lovin'
I want her
I can't leave her
I won't live without her
There's nothing left to say
I want her
I can't leave her
Pretty smile, lovely face and a warm breeze now I need you lady
You're my no tell lover
Every night in a different place I'll need you tender lady
You're my no tell lover
Everyone keeps tellin' me this affair's not meant to be

She's my no tell lover
You're my no tell lover

Walk away if you see me coming even though it's you I'm lovin'
I want her
I can't leave her
I won't live without her
She's my no tell lover
Show Me The Way lyrics - Chicago
Flying so high
Feeling so low
Fill my empty heart
Don't say no
Can I get through this night, with some lovin' to show
Won't you show me the way to go--I don't know
Won't you open your eyes
I know you really care
You see these games you play
They're just not fair
After all the good times and secrets we've shared
Won't you show me the way to go--I don't know
I wanna take my place
I wanna take my place
I wanna take my place with the loved ones
Well I still can't see how things were meant to be
Love me even for one day I'll treat you like a lady
In my heart you'll stay forever you know
Won't you show me the way to go--I don't know
Marching into your heart
Marching into your heart
Feeling so low
Fill my empty heart
Don't say no
Can I get through this night, with some lovin' to show
Won't you show me the way to go--I don't know
Won't you open your eyes
I know you really care
You see these games you play
They're just not fair
After all the good times and secrets we've shared
Won't you show me the way to go--I don't know
I wanna take my place
I wanna take my place
I wanna take my place with the loved ones
Well I still can't see how things were meant to be
Love me even for one day I'll treat you like a lady
In my heart you'll stay forever you know
Won't you show me the way to go--I don't know
Marching into your heart
Marching into your heart
Mississippi Delta City Blues lyrics - Chicago
I've got a smile
That I put on
When I'm not at home
When I'm not alone.
But it is so hard
To make that smile
'Cause I know I'll be at home
And alone in a while
And if I look in a mirror
I see my eyes start to tear
I can't help but cry
Since you said goodbye
I've got to hide
What I'm feelin' inside
Can't let them see
How you're hurtin' me.
So I guess that's what I'll do
Won't let them see through
Won't let them know
That you could hurt me so.
I've got a laugh
That I put on
When I'm not at home
When I'm not alone.
But it is so hard
To fake that laugh
When my insides are cryin'
And my heart's torn in half
And all the music I hear
And things I valued so dear
Make me feel so blue
They all remind me of you.
(Now) What can I do
(Now) That our love is through
And my purpose is gone
Still I got to live on.
I guess that's what I'll do
I won't let them see through
I won't let them know
That you could hurt me so.
That I put on
When I'm not at home
When I'm not alone.
But it is so hard
To make that smile
'Cause I know I'll be at home
And alone in a while
And if I look in a mirror
I see my eyes start to tear
I can't help but cry
Since you said goodbye
I've got to hide
What I'm feelin' inside
Can't let them see
How you're hurtin' me.
So I guess that's what I'll do
Won't let them see through
Won't let them know
That you could hurt me so.
I've got a laugh
That I put on
When I'm not at home
When I'm not alone.
But it is so hard
To fake that laugh
When my insides are cryin'
And my heart's torn in half
And all the music I hear
And things I valued so dear
Make me feel so blue
They all remind me of you.
(Now) What can I do
(Now) That our love is through
And my purpose is gone
Still I got to live on.
I guess that's what I'll do
I won't let them see through
I won't let them know
That you could hurt me so.
Baby, What A Big Surprise lyrics - Chicago
Right before my very eyes
I thought that you were only fakin' it
And like before my heart was takin' it.
Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes.
Yesterday it seemed to me
My life was nothing more than wasted time
But here today you've softly changed my mind.
Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes.
Just to be alone
Was a little more than I could take
Then you came to stay
Hold me in the morning
Love me in the afternoon
Help me find my way.
Now and then just like before
I think about the love I've thrown away
But now it doesn't matter anyway.
Baby, what a big surprise.
I thought that you were only fakin' it
And like before my heart was takin' it.
Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes.
Yesterday it seemed to me
My life was nothing more than wasted time
But here today you've softly changed my mind.
Baby what a big surprise
Right before my very eyes.
Just to be alone
Was a little more than I could take
Then you came to stay
Hold me in the morning
Love me in the afternoon
Help me find my way.
Now and then just like before
I think about the love I've thrown away
But now it doesn't matter anyway.
Baby, what a big surprise.
Till The End Of Time lyrics - Chicago
Why...do you love me like you do
Baby you deserve much more
Why...after all I've put you through
Would you stick around for more.
Heaven's at my feet now that I've found you
Life seems so complete when I'm around you
No-one else could touch me quite so deeply
No-one's love could satisfy me so sweetly
Love me till the end of time.
Why...even though you know I'm crazy
Do you still believe in me
Why...does a smile come so easy
Baby, since you set me free.
Free from all the weary wasted hours
Free from all those meaningless encounters
Free to live out lives the way we want to
Free to realize just what we've been through
Love me till the end of time.
Heaven's at my feet now that I've found you
Life seems so complete when I'm around you
No-one else could touch me quite so deeply
No-one's love could satisfy me so sweetly
Love me till the end of time.
Love me...only you can love me like you...
Baby you deserve much more
Why...after all I've put you through
Would you stick around for more.
Heaven's at my feet now that I've found you
Life seems so complete when I'm around you
No-one else could touch me quite so deeply
No-one's love could satisfy me so sweetly
Love me till the end of time.
Why...even though you know I'm crazy
Do you still believe in me
Why...does a smile come so easy
Baby, since you set me free.
Free from all the weary wasted hours
Free from all those meaningless encounters
Free to live out lives the way we want to
Free to realize just what we've been through
Love me till the end of time.
Heaven's at my feet now that I've found you
Life seems so complete when I'm around you
No-one else could touch me quite so deeply
No-one's love could satisfy me so sweetly
Love me till the end of time.
Love me...only you can love me like you...
Policeman lyrics - Chicago
Everyday he wakes up
As his bare feet hit the floor
Grabs a cup of coffee
Straps his Magnum on once more
Feeds the cat he lives with
Since his wife walked out the door
In nine years he'll retire with a pension.
Everyday he suffers
'Cause he sees all kinds of pain
Sometimes feels helpless
In a world that's gone insane
Then he wins a battle
It restores his faith again
It's only human kindness he is after.
He is a Policeman, you know
All the years and nothing to show
He is a Policeman, you know.
Every night he comes home
With a six-pack all alone
Feeds the cat he lives with
He picks up the telephone
Needs to talk with someone
But the only love he's known
Was lost forever, he is a Policeman.
He is a Policeman, you know
All the years and nothing to show
He is a Policeman, you know
All the years and nothing to show
As his bare feet hit the floor
Grabs a cup of coffee
Straps his Magnum on once more
Feeds the cat he lives with
Since his wife walked out the door
In nine years he'll retire with a pension.
Everyday he suffers
'Cause he sees all kinds of pain
Sometimes feels helpless
In a world that's gone insane
Then he wins a battle
It restores his faith again
It's only human kindness he is after.
He is a Policeman, you know
All the years and nothing to show
He is a Policeman, you know.
Every night he comes home
With a six-pack all alone
Feeds the cat he lives with
He picks up the telephone
Needs to talk with someone
But the only love he's known
Was lost forever, he is a Policeman.
He is a Policeman, you know
All the years and nothing to show
He is a Policeman, you know
All the years and nothing to show
Take Me Back To Chicago lyrics - Chicago
Take me back to Chicago
Lay my soul to rest
Where my life was free and easy
Remember me at my best.
Take me back to Chicago
Where music was all I had
I tried to be good as I could
And sometimes that made me sad.
Take me back to Chicago, to Chicago
Why don't you take me back
Take me back, take me back
To Chicago.
I still dream of the Lake of peacefulness
The warm summer breeze
'Cause my life was so much simpler then
Street corners and Tastee Freeze.
Take me back to Chicago
'Cause hustlin's not my style
L.A. was just a bit too hard
I wish I could be a child
Livin' back in Chicago, in Chicago
Why don't you take me back
Take me back, take me back
To Chicago.
Take me back to Chicago
Lay my soul to rest
Where my life was free and easy
Remember me at my best.
Take me back to Chicago
'Cause hustlin's not my style
L.A. was just a bit too hard
I wish I could be a child.
Livin' back in Chicago, in Chicago
Why don't you take me back
Take me back, take me back
To Chicago.
Take me back, take me back....
Lay my soul to rest
Where my life was free and easy
Remember me at my best.
Take me back to Chicago
Where music was all I had
I tried to be good as I could
And sometimes that made me sad.
Take me back to Chicago, to Chicago
Why don't you take me back
Take me back, take me back
To Chicago.
I still dream of the Lake of peacefulness
The warm summer breeze
'Cause my life was so much simpler then
Street corners and Tastee Freeze.
Take me back to Chicago
'Cause hustlin's not my style
L.A. was just a bit too hard
I wish I could be a child
Livin' back in Chicago, in Chicago
Why don't you take me back
Take me back, take me back
To Chicago.
Take me back to Chicago
Lay my soul to rest
Where my life was free and easy
Remember me at my best.
Take me back to Chicago
'Cause hustlin's not my style
L.A. was just a bit too hard
I wish I could be a child.
Livin' back in Chicago, in Chicago
Why don't you take me back
Take me back, take me back
To Chicago.
Take me back, take me back....
Vote For Me lyrics - Chicago
Vote for me, vote for me
I want the nomination for the Presidency
Vote for me, vote for me
If I am elected, this is how it will be.
I'll cut your tax in half
I'll make the Russians laugh
I'll feed the hungry people everywhere.
I'll bring the railroads back
New trains and new track
From Waikiki to old Delaware.
Vote for me, vote for me
I want the nomination for the Presidency
Vote for me, vote for me
If I am elected, this is how it will be.
I'll give Detroit one year
New cars that run on beer
Or anything except gasoline.
I'm looking to the sun
More power for everyone
And the cleanest sky that you've ever seen.
I'm not going to kid you, there's a lot to do
Little can I promise, it's really up to you
But if we all work together
And I think we can
And if you want some new ideas
Then I'm your man.
Vote for me, vote for me
I want the nomination for the Presidency
Vote for me, vote for me
If I am elected, this is how it will be.
I'll work for global peace
And the sweet release
Of the love and human kindness in us all.
I would give all I've got
You just give me a shot
Somehow, I know that I can win the fall.
I want the nomination for the Presidency
Vote for me, vote for me
If I am elected, this is how it will be.
I'll cut your tax in half
I'll make the Russians laugh
I'll feed the hungry people everywhere.
I'll bring the railroads back
New trains and new track
From Waikiki to old Delaware.
Vote for me, vote for me
I want the nomination for the Presidency
Vote for me, vote for me
If I am elected, this is how it will be.
I'll give Detroit one year
New cars that run on beer
Or anything except gasoline.
I'm looking to the sun
More power for everyone
And the cleanest sky that you've ever seen.
I'm not going to kid you, there's a lot to do
Little can I promise, it's really up to you
But if we all work together
And I think we can
And if you want some new ideas
Then I'm your man.
Vote for me, vote for me
I want the nomination for the Presidency
Vote for me, vote for me
If I am elected, this is how it will be.
I'll work for global peace
And the sweet release
Of the love and human kindness in us all.
I would give all I've got
You just give me a shot
Somehow, I know that I can win the fall.
Takin' It On Uptown lyrics - Chicago
Walkin' through the fog on a cold and cloudy night
Lookin' through the smog that surrounds the mornin' light
The shades of brown. It gets me down, exactly like my life
I don't deserve the hand I'm dealt: a flush in spades of strife.
I've grown tired of speeches that are nothing but a bore
So I'm rounding up the broken me and headin' on out the door
Without no lag I'm packin' my bag of discontented frowns
And hopping number eighty-six, the first train that is freedom bound.
Got my bag of many frowns and I'm takin' it on uptown.
Big city lights
Funkier nights
Happier days
Goin' my way
It should be right
But I'm still uptight
Hey, I better put down
And get movin' on
I'm through with aggravation
Don't deserve the degradation
I'm putting all the negatives down
To hop the train that's freedom bound for uptown.
Got my bag of many frowns and I'm takin' it on uptown.
Lookin' through the smog that surrounds the mornin' light
The shades of brown. It gets me down, exactly like my life
I don't deserve the hand I'm dealt: a flush in spades of strife.
I've grown tired of speeches that are nothing but a bore
So I'm rounding up the broken me and headin' on out the door
Without no lag I'm packin' my bag of discontented frowns
And hopping number eighty-six, the first train that is freedom bound.
Got my bag of many frowns and I'm takin' it on uptown.
Big city lights
Funkier nights
Happier days
Goin' my way
It should be right
But I'm still uptight
Hey, I better put down
And get movin' on
I'm through with aggravation
Don't deserve the degradation
I'm putting all the negatives down
To hop the train that's freedom bound for uptown.
Got my bag of many frowns and I'm takin' it on uptown.
This Time lyrics - Chicago
This time I've found a love to treasure
One that's impossible to measure
The future looks bright, the moment feels so right
Just being near you brings me pleasure.
This time the both of us can see
How we can love and still feel free
You came into sight, I saw a whole new light
I found out what happiness can be.
'Cause Baby
I'd given up
Ever finding
Someone
To share my life
Forever.
This time we'll make it
Baby, we see
Nothing can take it from you and me
This time I feel it, like never before
Each day I love you more.
This time our search for love has ended
All of our goals in life have blended
And baby tonight, I'll love your body, make you feel right
We'll see all our troubles can all be mended.
This time we'll make it
Baby, we see
Nothing can take it from you and me
This time I feel it, like never before
Each day I love you more and more.
One that's impossible to measure
The future looks bright, the moment feels so right
Just being near you brings me pleasure.
This time the both of us can see
How we can love and still feel free
You came into sight, I saw a whole new light
I found out what happiness can be.
'Cause Baby
I'd given up
Ever finding
Someone
To share my life
Forever.
This time we'll make it
Baby, we see
Nothing can take it from you and me
This time I feel it, like never before
Each day I love you more.
This time our search for love has ended
All of our goals in life have blended
And baby tonight, I'll love your body, make you feel right
We'll see all our troubles can all be mended.
This time we'll make it
Baby, we see
Nothing can take it from you and me
This time I feel it, like never before
Each day I love you more and more.
Prelude (Little One) lyrics - Chicago
Lying here as the morning light shines in
Can't believe the reflections from within
To look at your face takes me to a place
That reminds me of the lovely lady I once loved.
Can't believe the reflections from within
To look at your face takes me to a place
That reminds me of the lovely lady I once loved.

Someday you'll have your own little one
And you will always be there.
My little one...
Once Or Twice lyrics - Chicago
Oh girl
I looked you over once or twice
I think that you are very nice
And you're just meant for me
Oh girl
I think you got a messed up mind
But if you will take the time
Baby i can set you free
Well I'm not trying to be
What i am not
But i think what you need
Is what i got
Girl I'm no philosopher
But i can offer you that cure
To mend your broken heart
I know that you are not blind
I know you see my messed up mind
Yes, you see my broken heart too
So won't you
Bring your heart and
Your mind that's out
On the run
Fuse them with my broken
Heart, in my mind
We'll be one.
Girl i looked you over once or twice
I think that you are very nice
And you're just meant for me
Girl i think you got a messed up mind
Now that you know yours is
Just like mine
Baby, won't you set me free
I looked you over once or twice
I think that you are very nice
And you're just meant for me
Oh girl
I think you got a messed up mind
But if you will take the time
Baby i can set you free
Well I'm not trying to be
What i am not
But i think what you need
Is what i got
Girl I'm no philosopher
But i can offer you that cure
To mend your broken heart
I know that you are not blind
I know you see my messed up mind
Yes, you see my broken heart too
So won't you
Bring your heart and
Your mind that's out
On the run
Fuse them with my broken
Heart, in my mind
We'll be one.
Girl i looked you over once or twice
I think that you are very nice
And you're just meant for me
Girl i think you got a messed up mind
Now that you know yours is
Just like mine
Baby, won't you set me free
You Are On My Mind lyrics - Chicago
You are on my mind
The echo of your laughter flowing through me
Sitting by a mountain fire
And wishing you were in my arms
And loving me completely
Rocky mountain highs are very nice
But you are gone and nothing's quite the same
L.A. is so far away and I can't
Stand another day
Without you by my side
Though I've tried, tried, tried
You are on my mind
You are everything a woman could be
Consequently I believe that no one
Else could take your place if you
Should ever leave me
I'll be coming home again to you
And look upon the woman that I love
There is nothing I can say that celebrates
The special way you keep me satisfied
Pretty girl
(break)
Feeling just a little lonely
Wishing you were in my arms
Yeah.....
You are on my mind
The echo of your laughter flowing through me
Sitting by a mountain fire
And wishing you were in my arms
And loving me completely
Rocky mountain highs are very nice
But you are gone and nothing's quite the same
L.A. is so far away and i can't
Stand another day
Without you by my side
Though I've tried, tried, tried.
The echo of your laughter flowing through me
Sitting by a mountain fire
And wishing you were in my arms
And loving me completely
Rocky mountain highs are very nice
But you are gone and nothing's quite the same
L.A. is so far away and I can't
Stand another day
Without you by my side
Though I've tried, tried, tried
You are on my mind
You are everything a woman could be
Consequently I believe that no one
Else could take your place if you
Should ever leave me
I'll be coming home again to you
And look upon the woman that I love
There is nothing I can say that celebrates
The special way you keep me satisfied
Pretty girl
(break)
Feeling just a little lonely
Wishing you were in my arms
Yeah.....
You are on my mind
The echo of your laughter flowing through me
Sitting by a mountain fire
And wishing you were in my arms
And loving me completely
Rocky mountain highs are very nice
But you are gone and nothing's quite the same
L.A. is so far away and i can't
Stand another day
Without you by my side
Though I've tried, tried, tried.

If You Leave Me Now lyrics - Chicago
If you leave me now, you'll take away the biggest part of me
No baby please don't go
If you leave me now, you'll take away the very heart of me
No baby please don't go
A love like ours is love that's hard to find
How could we let it slip away
We've come too far to leave it all behind
How could we end it all this way
When tomorrow comes we'll both regret
Things we said today
Cause I need you more than you'll ever know
No baby please don't go
If you leave me now, you'll take away the very heart of me
No baby please don't go
A love like ours is love that's hard to find
How could we let it slip away
We've come too far to leave it all behind
How could we end it all this way
When tomorrow comes we'll both regret
Things we said today
Cause I need you more than you'll ever know
Together Again lyrics - Chicago
The lonely days I spend away from you
Sometimes seem like they will never end
But then I picture the glow of your smiling face
And I can make it through the lonely days
And nights until I'm
Home
With you
Where we
Can see
And feel
Our love
Together again
My friend
The lonely nights I spend away from you
Are filled with memories of your dancing eyes
I feel I can make it through another day
Knowing that you'll be waiting to kiss me
Tenderly when I get home
Sometimes seem like they will never end
But then I picture the glow of your smiling face
And I can make it through the lonely days
And nights until I'm
Home
With you
Where we
Can see
And feel
Our love
Together again
My friend
The lonely nights I spend away from you
Are filled with memories of your dancing eyes
I feel I can make it through another day
Knowing that you'll be waiting to kiss me
Tenderly when I get home
Another Rainy Day In New York City lyrics - Chicago
Another rainy day in New York City
Softly sweet, so silently it falls
As cross town traffic crawls
Memories in my way in New York City
Tender, tough, too tragic to be true
And nothing I can do
City workers cheer
The taxis disappear
Another rainy day in New York City
Another spacey stay in New York city
High up in an overpriced hotel
The view is really swell
Windy, wet and gray in New York City
No one here I really want to see
Old friends and family
So suddenly serene
The air is fresh and clean
Another rainy day in New York City
Softly sweet, so silently it falls
As cross town traffic crawls
Memories in my way in New York City
Tender, tough, too tragic to be true
And nothing I can do
City workers cheer
The taxis disappear
Another rainy day in New York City
Another spacey stay in New York city
High up in an overpriced hotel
The view is really swell
Windy, wet and gray in New York City
No one here I really want to see
Old friends and family
So suddenly serene
The air is fresh and clean
Another rainy day in New York City
Mama Mama lyrics - Chicago
I can feel the magic
Suddenly it's all around
I can see it clearly
I can even hear the sound
It's all so new to me
I'm not the same
If this is love - it's words i feel
Then you're to blame - but can't explain
Mama mama when you look at me
I see love in your eyes
Mama mama softly sweet tender love in your eyes
You are all I live for
Maybe that's enough to say
And you're the one I wrote this song for
Everywhere & everyway
Suddenly it's all around
I can see it clearly
I can even hear the sound
It's all so new to me
I'm not the same
If this is love - it's words i feel
Then you're to blame - but can't explain
Mama mama when you look at me
I see love in your eyes
Mama mama softly sweet tender love in your eyes
You are all I live for
Maybe that's enough to say
And you're the one I wrote this song for
Everywhere & everyway
Scrapbook lyrics - Chicago
Six sets smoked on Saturdays
At Barnaby's on State
Countless California calls
We could not stand the wait
We played the pier on Venice beach
The crowd called out for more
Zappa and the Mothers next
We finished with a roar
Jimi was so kind to us
Had us on the tour
We got some education
Like we never got before
Around the world in twenty days
We played most every night
Jet-lag, girls, strange languages
Everyone began to fight
Lowdown at the Caribou
All rumors aside
Was we could never get together
Not unless we tried
Summer with the Beach Boys
We got sand all in our shoes
Made some special music
Everybody sang the blues
At Barnaby's on State
Countless California calls
We could not stand the wait
We played the pier on Venice beach
The crowd called out for more
Zappa and the Mothers next
We finished with a roar
Jimi was so kind to us
Had us on the tour
We got some education
Like we never got before
Around the world in twenty days
We played most every night
Jet-lag, girls, strange languages
Everyone began to fight
Lowdown at the Caribou
All rumors aside
Was we could never get together
Not unless we tried
Summer with the Beach Boys
We got sand all in our shoes
Made some special music
Everybody sang the blues
Gently I'll Wake You lyrics - Chicago
Come to me, baby mine
And I'll make love to you
Just when the sun begins to shine
On the morning dew
I've been gone, far away
The days they seemed like years
Right by your side I'm gonna stay
Kiss away your tears
Gently I'll wake you
I won't hardly shake you
Gently I'll wake you
I won't hardly shake you
And I'll make sweet love to you
Hold me tight, don't let go
We'll dream the whole day through
I missed you more than you could know
I love only you
Come to me, baby mine
And I'll make love to you
Just when the sun begins to shine
On the morning dew
Gently I'll wake you
I won't hardly shake you
Gently I'll wake you
I won't hardly shake you
And I'll make sweet love to you
And I'll make love to you
Just when the sun begins to shine
On the morning dew
I've been gone, far away
The days they seemed like years
Right by your side I'm gonna stay
Kiss away your tears
Gently I'll wake you
I won't hardly shake you
Gently I'll wake you
I won't hardly shake you
And I'll make sweet love to you
Hold me tight, don't let go
We'll dream the whole day through
I missed you more than you could know
I love only you
Come to me, baby mine
And I'll make love to you
Just when the sun begins to shine
On the morning dew
Gently I'll wake you
I won't hardly shake you
Gently I'll wake you
I won't hardly shake you
And I'll make sweet love to you
You Get It Up lyrics - Chicago
You get it up
You get it up
You get me feeling so hot
Mama, I'm your buttercup
I'm blowing up
I'm blowing up
It's getting hotter and I
Don't know if I'll ever stop
Baby
Baby baby baby
You get it up
You get it up

You get me feeling so hot
Mama, I'm your buttercup
I'm blowing up
I'm blowing up
It's getting hotter and I
Don't know if I'll ever stop
Baby
Baby baby baby
You get it up
You get it up
Hope For Love lyrics - Chicago
Here i go again
Why does the ghost of love still haunt me
It's all been cried about before
It's all been cried about before
Yes, it's all been cried about before
Still it's everywhere
Is it crying to be heard
Don't think you've had your say
Don't think you've had your say
Yes, don't you think you've seen your day
I don't know
No i don't
Don't i know
I don't know
Don't i know
No i don't
I don't know
Not knowing if it's love
Is better than no thoughts of love at all
But it's been cried about before
I guess I'll cry for it some more
It's just the hope for love once more
It's just the hope for love once more
Why does the ghost of love still haunt me
It's all been cried about before
It's all been cried about before
Yes, it's all been cried about before
Still it's everywhere
Is it crying to be heard
Don't think you've had your say
Don't think you've had your say
Yes, don't you think you've seen your day
I don't know
No i don't
Don't i know
I don't know
Don't i know
No i don't
I don't know
Not knowing if it's love
Is better than no thoughts of love at all
But it's been cried about before
I guess I'll cry for it some more
It's just the hope for love once more
It's just the hope for love once more

Brand New Love Affair Part I And II lyrics - Chicago
Wish I knew what was going wrong
Seems so very long since we laughed together
It's no good to be all alone
When you hurt a friend
And you both feel empty
What I'd give to erase the pain
Will we ever make friends
Is it over or shall we try again
For a brand new love affair
Seems to me
We are both afraid
That our love may fade and we just won't make it
Maybe soon we'll be friends again
Find ourselves and then
Really make it happen
What I'd give to erase the pain
Will we every make friends
Is it over or shall we try again
For a brand new love affair
Start all over again
And do it up the right way
Come together my friend
And celebrate the new day
I can hardly believe
How much I really love you baby
All our tomorrows will be
A love affair with you my lady
Seems so very long since we laughed together
It's no good to be all alone
When you hurt a friend
And you both feel empty
What I'd give to erase the pain
Will we ever make friends
Is it over or shall we try again
For a brand new love affair
Seems to me
We are both afraid
That our love may fade and we just won't make it
Maybe soon we'll be friends again
Find ourselves and then
Really make it happen
What I'd give to erase the pain
Will we every make friends
Is it over or shall we try again
For a brand new love affair
Start all over again
And do it up the right way
Come together my friend
And celebrate the new day
I can hardly believe
How much I really love you baby
All our tomorrows will be
A love affair with you my lady
Never Been In Love Before lyrics - Chicago
I've never been in love before
Not like this you taught me more
How among myself will I
Lift up on myself and cry
'Cause I thought I could not give
My thought would not let me live
How my feeling disappeared
You are lovely reason I
Am alive you satisfy
All my senses and you give
Me the confidence to grow
In a thousand different ways
Happy just to spend the days
Of my lifetime by your side
I want to be
Everything that I can
I want so much
To be more of a man
I want to grow
I want to know you better
Each day I'll try
To love you
'Cause I've never been in love before
You have a friend for life in me
If we ever disagree
If you have to go away
I will set you free with time
'Cause your happiness is mine
May our light forever shine
When you always feel free
I want to be
Everything that I can
I want so much
To be more of a man
I want to live
I want to give my lifetime
Each day I'll try
To love you
'Cause I've never been in love before
Not like this you taught me more
How among myself will I
Lift up on myself and cry
'Cause I thought I could not give
My thought would not let me live
How my feeling disappeared
You are lovely reason I
Am alive you satisfy
All my senses and you give
Me the confidence to grow
In a thousand different ways
Happy just to spend the days
Of my lifetime by your side
I want to be
Everything that I can
I want so much
To be more of a man
I want to grow
I want to know you better
Each day I'll try
To love you
'Cause I've never been in love before
You have a friend for life in me
If we ever disagree
If you have to go away
I will set you free with time
'Cause your happiness is mine
May our light forever shine
When you always feel free
I want to be
Everything that I can
I want so much
To be more of a man
I want to live
I want to give my lifetime
Each day I'll try
To love you
'Cause I've never been in love before
Hideaway lyrics - Chicago
You know I gotta go

From the human race
Find a place where the air is clear
On a sunny day, sunny day

A Hideaway, hideaway

You know I gotta leave
Got to find a place, any place

Till We Meet again lyrics - Chicago
I want to share the love that fills my being
If your willing
Come along
Take of me this evening and this love
If you're lonely
Come let's be
There's no time for shyness
How fast night turns to day
Let's just light love's fire
And lay embraced till it burns away
Kiss goodbye and journey on to new loves
Keep your own love
Till we meet again
If your willing
Come along
Take of me this evening and this love
If you're lonely
Come let's be
There's no time for shyness
How fast night turns to day
Let's just light love's fire
And lay embraced till it burns away
Kiss goodbye and journey on to new loves
Keep your own love
Till we meet again
Harry Truman lyrics - Chicago
America needs you
Harry Truman
Harry could you please come home
Things are looking bad
I know you would be mad
To see what kind of men
Prevail upon the land you love
America's wondering
How we got here
Harry all we get is lies
We're gettin' safer cars
Rocket ships to mars
From men who'd sell us out
To get themselves a piece of power
We'd love to hear you speak your mind
In plain and simple ways
Call a spade a spade
Like you did back in the day
You would play piano
Each morning walk a mile
Speak of what was going down
With honesty and style
America's calling
Harry Truman
Harry you know what to do
The world is turnin' round and losin' lots of ground
Oh Harry is there something we can do to save the land we love
Oh woah woah woah
America's calling
Harry Truman
Harry you know what to do
The world is turnin' round
And losin' lots of ground
So Harry is there something we can do to save the land we love
Oh
Harry is there something we can do to save the land we love
Harry
Harry is there something we can do to save the land we love
Harry Truman
Harry could you please come home
Things are looking bad
I know you would be mad
To see what kind of men
Prevail upon the land you love
America's wondering
How we got here
Harry all we get is lies
We're gettin' safer cars
Rocket ships to mars
From men who'd sell us out
To get themselves a piece of power
We'd love to hear you speak your mind
In plain and simple ways
Call a spade a spade
Like you did back in the day
You would play piano

The world is turnin' round
And losin' lots of ground
So Harry is there something we can do to save the land we love
Oh

Oh, Thank You Great Spirit lyrics - Chicago
Pulling myself out of a dead sleep
With the impression of the dream still fresh in my mind
Before I'm even awake, the words, the music were complete
I woke up that mornin'
Feelin' so rested and young
My mind was clear of all the problems
That been hasslin' my head
I couldn't quite understand why
I felt so fine
I felt so free
So beyond it all
As I turned towards the bed
I understood as all came clear
As I turned towards the bed
I understood as all came clear
I saw myself lyin' there
Didn't have a care
Piece of mind was finally mine
Now free to fly
Into the blue sky
Oh great spirit
Fly away
Oh great spirit
Just fly
Fly
Oh fly away
With the impression of the dream still fresh in my mind
Before I'm even awake, the words, the music were complete
I woke up that mornin'
Feelin' so rested and young
My mind was clear of all the problems
That been hasslin' my head
I couldn't quite understand why
I felt so fine
I felt so free
So beyond it all
As I turned towards the bed
I understood as all came clear
As I turned towards the bed
I understood as all came clear
I saw myself lyin' there
Didn't have a care
Piece of mind was finally mine
Now free to fly
Into the blue sky
Oh great spirit
Fly away
Oh great spirit
Just fly
Fly
Oh fly away
Long Time No See lyrics - Chicago
What you been doin, ain't you got no one
Where you been keepin' yourself my friend
Have you been hidin' underground writin'
Foolin' yourself in your special way
Where's your old lady
She was a nice girl
Maybe it's best that she went away
You will be losin' nothing can change you
Happiness spits in your face always
Where are you going, what will you see there
You never learn nothin' by runnin' away
What you been doin, ain't you got no one
Where you been keepin' yourself my friend
Loneliness growin' Emptiness showin'
Finding your peace two or three times a day
three times a day
Where you been keepin' yourself my friend
Have you been hidin' underground writin'
Foolin' yourself in your special way
Where's your old lady
She was a nice girl
Maybe it's best that she went away
You will be losin' nothing can change you
Happiness spits in your face always
Where are you going, what will you see there
You never learn nothin' by runnin' away
What you been doin, ain't you got no one
Where you been keepin' yourself my friend
Loneliness growin' Emptiness showin'
Finding your peace two or three times a day
three times a day
Ain't It Blue? lyrics - Chicago
Done the things I said I would
Some of them were pretty good
Suddenly they changed the game
I only know it's not the same no more
I don't know what to do the rules I knew
Ain't it sad
Ain't it sad
Ain't it true
Ain't it true
Ain't it blue
Ain't it blue
The life I live is pretty nice
Of course I had to pay a price
Lots of folks depend on me
Erase all kinds of slavery
I don't know what to do the rules I knew
Ain't it sad
Ain't it sad
Ain't it true
Ain't it true
Ain't it blue
Ain't it blue
Ain't it blue
Sometimes I want to walk away
I felt like that just yesterday
But when this song is in my head
I try my best 'till I'm dead and gone
I don't know what to do the rules I knew
Ain't it sad
Ain't it sad
Ain't it true
Ain't it true
Ain't it blue
Ain't it blue
Ain't it blue
Some of them were pretty good
Suddenly they changed the game
I only know it's not the same no more
I don't know what to do the rules I knew
Ain't it sad
Ain't it sad
Ain't it true
Ain't it true
Ain't it blue
Ain't it blue
The life I live is pretty nice
Of course I had to pay a price
Lots of folks depend on me
Erase all kinds of slavery
I don't know what to do the rules I knew
Ain't it sad
Ain't it sad
Ain't it true
Ain't it true
Ain't it blue
Ain't it blue
Ain't it blue
Sometimes I want to walk away
I felt like that just yesterday
But when this song is in my head
I try my best 'till I'm dead and gone
I don't know what to do the rules I knew
Ain't it sad
Ain't it sad
Ain't it true
Ain't it true
Ain't it blue
Ain't it blue
Ain't it blue
Old Days lyrics - Chicago
Old days
Good times I remember
Fun days
Filled with ship of pleasure
Drive-in movies
Comic books and blue jeans
Howdy Doody
Baseball cards and birthdays
Please take me back
To the world gone away
Memories
Seem like yesterday
Old days
Good times I remember
Gold days
Days I'll always treasure
Funny faces
Full of love and laughter
Funny places
Summer nights and streetcars
Take me back
To the world gone away
Our good memories
Seem like yesterday
Old days...
Good times I remember
Fun days
Filled with ship of pleasure
Drive-in movies
Comic books and blue jeans
Howdy Doody
Baseball cards and birthdays
Please take me back
To the world gone away
Memories
Seem like yesterday
Old days
Good times I remember
Gold days
Days I'll always treasure
Funny faces
Full of love and laughter
Funny places
Summer nights and streetcars
Take me back
To the world gone away
Our good memories
Seem like yesterday
Old days...

Song Of The Evergreens lyrics - Chicago
Listen to the briskly whistling winter evergreen
Whispering through the frozen morning light
And tell me what's to come
Saying my time is near
Never fear
How close each year
I'm winter
Reminding me to trade my t-shirts for my woven wools
Trade my sandals for my skis
Whispered warnings in the wind
Saying soon come the dancing snowflakes
They're kissing every tree
They're kissing you and me
Please hurry
Falling
Dazzling dancing diamonds from the sky
Prisms
Rainbow sparkled flurries in our eyes
Whipping across the frozen crystal metal pines of ice
Race the snow
We'll spend the mornings by our bed
They cuddle close and wine and dine
The setting sun
The morning light will blind those eyes
Shooting down the glistening
Outside
Screaming through the whispering pines
The freedom of each day
Will cleanse our minds
I can hardly wait for winter
I can hardly wait for the snow
I can hardly hardly wait for winter
I can hardly wait for the snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Snow snow snow snow snow snow snow snow
Whispering through the frozen morning light
And tell me what's to come
Saying my time is near
Never fear
How close each year
I'm winter
Reminding me to trade my t-shirts for my woven wools
Trade my sandals for my skis
Whispered warnings in the wind
Saying soon come the dancing snowflakes
They're kissing every tree
They're kissing you and me
Please hurry
Falling
Dazzling dancing diamonds from the sky
Prisms
Rainbow sparkled flurries in our eyes
Whipping across the frozen crystal metal pines of ice
Race the snow
We'll spend the mornings by our bed
They cuddle close and wine and dine
The setting sun
The morning light will blind those eyes
Shooting down the glistening
Outside
Screaming through the whispering pines
The freedom of each day
Will cleanse our minds
I can hardly wait for winter
I can hardly wait for the snow
I can hardly hardly wait for winter
I can hardly wait for the snow

Byblos lyrics - Chicago
I saw her once before; she didn't turn me on.
One night she stopped to talk to pass the time.
And then I saw her eyes; her softly smiling glow,
We sat and talked all night at Byblos.
She talked of feelings that I knew were true.
She painted me a picture using ev'ry shade of blue
It was light with laughter, At times it made me cry,
And now I'll never know just why I didn't ever try to hold her;
to squeeze her; to kiss her all night long, I never tried to please her.
Then, soon she had to go;
I sat there all alone
And thought of things she said
The whole day through.
And then I realized,
I never took the time
To find out where she lived
Or where to call.
I thought that I would see
Her the next night,
Anticipating how I'd set myself right.
Then, I went back to Byblos;
I sat there and waited,
Feeling just a little nervous
And a little frustrated.
Then, soon, in she came, looking just the same
Oo, I could hardly wait to take her far from the game.
Then a person came in to the club
that I had to speak to
I explained the situation to her
And i thought she understood
But I guess she thought I was jiving her around
Cause when I looked for her, this is what I found
She was rapping with a real good friend of mine,
He was happening, I guess it was his time.
I really couldn't blame him, cause he was sad and lonely too.
But just talking to her did me so much good, I knew she'd do him good too.
Then I went home and I got it on,
Sat down to write these words when I was finally alone.
And then, about halfway through I wondered if someone knew
where she was, so I could give her a call,
And I found out that she was right down the hall,
Not too far away,
but that's ok, I'll just wait for the day when I can see
her again and spend some time.
One night she stopped to talk to pass the time.
And then I saw her eyes; her softly smiling glow,
We sat and talked all night at Byblos.
She talked of feelings that I knew were true.
She painted me a picture using ev'ry shade of blue
It was light with laughter, At times it made me cry,
And now I'll never know just why I didn't ever try to hold her;
to squeeze her; to kiss her all night long, I never tried to please her.
Then, soon she had to go;
I sat there all alone
And thought of things she said
The whole day through.
And then I realized,
I never took the time
To find out where she lived
Or where to call.
I thought that I would see
Her the next night,
Anticipating how I'd set myself right.
Then, I went back to Byblos;
I sat there and waited,
Feeling just a little nervous
And a little frustrated.

Wishing You Were Here lyrics - Chicago
Sleepless hours and dreamless nights and far aways
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
Heaven knows and lord it shows when I'm away
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
Same old show in a different town on another day
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
Even though you're far away, you're on my mind
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
And I'd like to change my life, and you know I would
Just to be with you tonight, baby, if I could
But I've got my job to do, and I do it well,
Change my life) So I guess that's how it is.
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
On the road it's a heavy load, but I'll be by
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
Pay the price, make a sacrifice, and still I'll try
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
Heaven knows and lord it shows when I'm away
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
Same old show in a different town on another day
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
Even though you're far away, you're on my mind
Ooo ooo ooo, wishing you were here
And I'd like to change my life, and you know I would
Just to be with you tonight, baby, if I could
But I've got my job to do, and I do it well,
Change my life) So I guess that's how it is.

On the road it's a heavy load, but I'll be by

Call On Me lyrics - Chicago
The feelin' was clear
Clear as a blue sky on a Sunday day
Everything was you
'Cause no one made me feel
The way I felt with you
Call on me 'cause

Then came a change
When I said I would soon be leavin' you
Nothin' else to do
Please remember I never lose the thought of you
Call on me 'cause
I love you
You know I do
You love me too
You've got to find
Someone else to somehow take my place
Share his life with you
But if you need a friend
You can always count on me

Woman Don't Want To Love Me lyrics - Chicago
Woman don't want to love me
She says it makes her cry
Woman don't want to love me
That's an alibi
Lovin' gets complicated
You have to want to try
Won't be simply stated
You gotta look for some perfection
You're gonna lose some affection
Cryin' bye
Woman don't want to love me
She says she wants to go
Woman don't want to love me
She's tired of feelin' low
'Cause lovin' gets complicated
Just start with what you know
Won't be simply stated
Fill yourself with emotion
To earn yourself some devotion
Woman don't want to love me
She hates to be alone
Woman don't want to love me
She hates the telephone
'Cause lovin' gets complicated
It's a little bit too fast
Won't be simply stated
We gotta fix this situation
With the final liberation
Of this man
She says it makes her cry
Woman don't want to love me
That's an alibi
Lovin' gets complicated
You have to want to try
Won't be simply stated
You gotta look for some perfection
You're gonna lose some affection
Cryin' bye
Woman don't want to love me
She says she wants to go
Woman don't want to love me
She's tired of feelin' low
'Cause lovin' gets complicated
Just start with what you know
Won't be simply stated
Fill yourself with emotion
To earn yourself some devotion
Woman don't want to love me
She hates to be alone
Woman don't want to love me
She hates the telephone
'Cause lovin' gets complicated
It's a little bit too fast
Won't be simply stated
We gotta fix this situation
With the final liberation
Of this man
Skinny Boy lyrics - Chicago
Ow

When I was a young skinny boy
My momma said to me
The world out there is hot and dirty
Mean as it wants to be

Shouldn't ought to
If you love your brothers love will come back to you
Love'll come back to you

Darlin' Dear lyrics - Chicago
Since the time
Half the night
Feelin' good
Feelin' right
Words were spoke
Brought us close
When we touched it was overdose
On the road
You're back there
You're my friend Darlin' Dear
Open up
Let me in
I'm your pal again
When your smile
Shines on me
I am the sea to sea
We will fly everywhere
You're my friend Darlin' Dear
Caught a glance
Picked up the phone
Did you read Rolling Stone
Knowing you'll knock me out
I am your roustabout
Pretty good atmosphere
You're my friend Darlin' Dear
Oh baby
Oh baby
Half the night
Feelin' good
Feelin' right
Words were spoke
Brought us close
When we touched it was overdose
On the road
You're back there
You're my friend Darlin' Dear
Open up
Let me in
I'm your pal again
When your smile
Shines on me
I am the sea to sea
We will fly everywhere
You're my friend Darlin' Dear
Caught a glance
Picked up the phone
Did you read Rolling Stone
Knowing you'll knock me out
I am your roustabout
Pretty good atmosphere
You're my friend Darlin' Dear
Oh baby

Jenny lyrics - Chicago
Jenny
Jenny
You know I'm goin' away
And you know my woman's here
Please don't you stray
Watch over her
You can run amok and play
Your whole life through
And you can chase the cats around
'Cause she loves that too
Then if someone comes to cause her harm
You will protect her true
Oh Jenny
Jenny
Jenny
You got her while I'm gone
Time moves so slow
For someone who's alone
So comfort her
If she's feelin' low
You gotta be a card
And If she's fast asleep
Don't you sleep too hard
If someone comes to cause her harm
You gotta gun 'em down
Oh Jenny
Now maybe
It's gonna be alright
Won't have to fight
Won't have to fight
But then again
So sad but true
There's always someone waiting
Just to shit on you
And if she's feeling low
You gotta be a card
If she's fast asleep
Don't you sleep too hard
'Cause if someone comes to cause her harm
You gotta gun 'em down
Oh Jenny
Now maybe
It's gonna be alright
You won't have to fight
Never have to fight
But then again
You know it's sad but true
There's always someone waiting
Just to shit on you
Jenny
You know I'm goin' away
And you know my woman's here
Please don't you stray
Watch over her
You can run amok and play
Your whole life through
And you can chase the cats around
'Cause she loves that too
Then if someone comes to cause her harm
You will protect her true
Oh Jenny

What's This World Comin' To lyrics - Chicago
Why can't folks get along with one another
'Cause Jesus said you got to love your brother
Lord I seem to notice all the evil in the air
No one seems to really give a damn if it is there
Oh, what's this world comin' to
Hope for love, come on through, come on through
People finally get them together
Makin' life - Ooh - a whole lot better
Yeah, yeah
Some folks got a lot, and some are hungry
Well I said some folks have to live from day to day
Rich folks spendin' time just countin' money
Poor folks really ain't got much to say
What's this world comin' to
Hope for love, come on through, come on through
I said now people finally get them together
Makin' life - Ooh - a whole lot better
Yeah, yeah
What's this world
Comin' to
What's this world

Something In This City Changes People lyrics - Chicago
Later days will see me
Knowing what I spend
They are friend
So sad so sad
Smiling face greet me
Everyone's my friend
They Pretend
So sad so sad
They see I am happy
With my lady
They're not satisfied
All their feelings died
Something in this city
Changes people
Makes them devil-eyed
My love she waits for me
When I'm far away
Counting days
So sad so sad
They all know our story
Still they try to play
Anyway
So sad so sad
Flashing cars and morning
Funny faces
Egos magnified
Quite Unjustified
Something in this City
Changes People
Makes them devil-eyed
Knowing what I spend
They are friend
So sad so sad
Smiling face greet me
Everyone's my friend
They Pretend
So sad so sad
They see I am happy
With my lady
They're not satisfied
All their feelings died
Something in this city
Changes people
Makes them devil-eyed
My love she waits for me
When I'm far away
Counting days
So sad so sad
They all know our story
Still they try to play
Anyway
So sad so sad
Flashing cars and morning
Funny faces
Egos magnified
Quite Unjustified
Something in this City
Changes People
Makes them devil-eyed
Hollywood lyrics - Chicago
People running everywhere
Not one place to go
Got no time to look around to find out where they are
Where they are
Where they are
People having such a race
Don't know where it ends
Got beat the other man at getting anywhere
Anywhere
Anywhere
Hollywood
Crazy neighborhood
Never understood why I stay
Hollywood
Lovely lady who'd
Make you feel good
Every day
Feeling the night's past fire
Under the glowing eyes
Of the sweet butterflies
Watch
What you say
When you say it
Someone you know
Will betray it
Will betray it
Hollywood
Oh, crazy neighborhood
Never understood why I stay
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Hollywood, Hollywood
Things are weak, things are weak
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Heard it through the grapevine
Not one place to go
Got no time to look around to find out where they are

People having such a race
Don't know where it ends
Got beat the other man at getting anywhere

In Terms Of Two lyrics - Chicago
You played the part of this hard to get
And somehow you knew that I couldn't forget
And though I don't think in terms of two
I got it bad for you
And when you passed me along the way
I couldn't speak, so you didn't stay
And though I don't think in terms of two
You're breaking my heart
Shaking me up the part
Breaking my heart
Shaking me up the part again
When it appeared to me I was found
And nothing I did could bring me around
And though I don't think in terms of two
I saw it there in you
So now if you'd only understand
That without you here
I'd be half of a man
And though I don't think in terms of two
You're breaking my heart
Shakin me off the part
Breaking my heart
Shakin me off the part again
Because of you
Because of me
The times are right
I disagree
Before you leave
I want you to see
Woah, what you've done to me
And somehow you knew that I couldn't forget
And though I don't think in terms of two
I got it bad for you
And when you passed me along the way
I couldn't speak, so you didn't stay
And though I don't think in terms of two
You're breaking my heart
Shaking me up the part
Breaking my heart
Shaking me up the part again
When it appeared to me I was found
And nothing I did could bring me around
And though I don't think in terms of two
I saw it there in you
So now if you'd only understand
That without you here
I'd be half of a man
And though I don't think in terms of two
You're breaking my heart
Shakin me off the part
Breaking my heart
Shakin me off the part again
Because of you
Because of me
The times are right
I disagree
Before you leave
I want you to see
Woah, what you've done to me
Rediscovery lyrics - Chicago
Oh what a beautiful night
The stars are shining bright
I've not been feeling right
Not been feeling right
I've not been feeling right
Soon it's gonna change
Time to rearrange
Stop this acting strange
Found us a beautiful place
Perfect and tiny space
And now we can retrace
Now we can retrace
Now we can retrace
All we have begun
New oblivion
Havin' lots of fun
Guitar
Got to get back inside
Dreams and thoughts collide
Say you found this crazy
Say you found this crazy
Say you found this crazy
Life
Please be good to me
Last chance to be free
This mountain majesty is rediscovery
The stars are shining bright
I've not been feeling right
Not been feeling right
I've not been feeling right
Soon it's gonna change
Time to rearrange
Stop this acting strange
Found us a beautiful place
Perfect and tiny space
And now we can retrace
Now we can retrace
Now we can retrace
All we have begun
New oblivion
Havin' lots of fun
Guitar
Got to get back inside
Dreams and thoughts collide
Say you found this crazy
Say you found this crazy
Say you found this crazy
Life
Please be good to me
Last chance to be free
This mountain majesty is rediscovery

A Hit By Varese lyrics - Chicago
Please won't you sing me
A thing that will bring me right into the sky
If you would play it
Just lay it down, say, it will help me get by
Something to move me
Remove me and grove me, you want to know why?
I'm so tired of oldiess
And moldies and goldies, that I want to cry
Can you play free
Or in three of agree to attempt something new
The people need you
A seed that will lead to a hit by Varese
A thing that will bring me right into the sky
If you would play it
Just lay it down, say, it will help me get by
Something to move me
Remove me and grove me, you want to know why?
I'm so tired of oldiess
And moldies and goldies, that I want to cry
Can you play free
Or in three of agree to attempt something new
The people need you
A seed that will lead to a hit by Varese
All Is Well lyrics - Chicago
All is well again
I think I'm gonna be alright
And I'm feeling better
Again
Loving you was sad
Affairs of timing that were bad
And the laughing ended
Again
There was a time
When I thought I was fooling myself
But now, I'll take a bow
'Cause I'm free and easy
I think I'm gonna be alright
And I'm feeling better
Again
Loving you was sad
Affairs of timing that were bad
And the laughing ended
Again
There was a time
When I thought I was fooling myself
But now, I'll take a bow
'Cause I'm free and easy
Now That You've Gone lyrics - Chicago
Take a closer look inside yourself
You may see the love I left behind
Days were fast but full of life
We laughed at everything
Now you've gone time is standing still
I don't do anything I'm so alone
So lonely
Still I can recall
The happy times
Laughing arm and arm
So alive
Was it years ago
Or just a day
When you turned to me
Said goodbye
Now you've gone away
I don't know why
Did you have to lie
Walk away
How can I go on
In emptiness
Feeling so alone
Every day
You may see the love I left behind
Days were fast but full of life
We laughed at everything
Now you've gone time is standing still
I don't do anything I'm so alone
So lonely
Still I can recall
The happy times
Laughing arm and arm
So alive
Was it years ago
Or just a day
When you turned to me
Said goodbye
Now you've gone away
I don't know why
Did you have to lie
Walk away
How can I go on
In emptiness
Feeling so alone
Every day
Dialogue Part I lyrics - Chicago
Terry
Are you optimistic
'bout the way things are going?
Peter
No, I nver ever think of it at all
Terry
Don't you ever worry
When you see what's going down?
Peter
No, I try to mind my business,
that is, no business at all
Terry
When it's time to function
as a feeling human being, will your
Bachelor of Arts help you get by?
Peter
I hope to study further,
a few more years or so. I also hope
to keep a steady high
Terry
Will you try to change
things, use the power that you have,
the power of a million new ideas?
Peter
What is this power you
speak of and this need for things to
change? I always thought
that everything was fine
Terry
Don't you feel repression just
closing in around?
Peter
No, the campus here is very, very free
Terry
Does it make you angry
the way war is dragging on?
Peter
Well, I hope the President
knows what he's into, I don't know
Terry
Don't you ever see the starvation
in the city where you live, all the
needless hunger all the
needless pain?
Peter
I haven't been there lately,
the country is so fine, but my
neighbors don't seem hungry 'cause
they haven't got the time
Terry
Thank you for the talk,
you know you really eased my mind
I was troubled by the shapes
of things to come.
Peter
Well, if you had my
outlook your feelings would be
numb, you'd always think
that everything was fine
Are you optimistic
'bout the way things are going?
Peter
No, I nver ever think of it at all
Terry
Don't you ever worry
When you see what's going down?

While The City Sleeps lyrics - Chicago
While the city sleeps
Men are scheming
New ways to kill us
And tell us dirty lies
While the city sleeps
Earth is crumbling
Everyone talking
And doing not a thing
While the city sleeps
Men are dreaming
A world enlightened
Beyond this darkest age
Men are scheming
New ways to kill us
And tell us dirty lies
While the city sleeps
Earth is crumbling
Everyone talking
And doing not a thing
While the city sleeps
Men are dreaming
A world enlightened
Beyond this darkest age
Saturday In The Park lyrics - Chicago
Saturday in the park
I think it was the Fourth of July
Saturday in the park
I think it was the Fourth of July
People dancing, people laughing
A man selling ice cream
Singing Italian songs
?
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For Saturday
Saturday in the park
You'd think it was the Fourth of July
Saturday in the park
You'd think it was the Fourth of July
People talking, really smiling
A man playing guitar
Singing for us all
Will you help him change the world
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For today
Slow motion riders fly the colours of the day
A bronze man still can tell stories his own way
listen children all is not lost
all is not lost
Funny days in the park
Every day's the Fourth of July
Funny days in the park
Every day's the Fourth of July
People reaching, people touching
A real celebration
Waiting for us all
If we want it, really want it
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For the day
I think it was the Fourth of July
Saturday in the park
I think it was the Fourth of July
People dancing, people laughing
A man selling ice cream
Singing Italian songs
?
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For Saturday
Saturday in the park
You'd think it was the Fourth of July
Saturday in the park
You'd think it was the Fourth of July
People talking, really smiling
A man playing guitar
Singing for us all
Will you help him change the world
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For today
Slow motion riders fly the colours of the day
A bronze man still can tell stories his own way
listen children all is not lost
all is not lost
Funny days in the park
Every day's the Fourth of July
Funny days in the park
Every day's the Fourth of July
People reaching, people touching
A real celebration
Waiting for us all
If we want it, really want it
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time

State Of The Union lyrics - Chicago
I was talking 'bout the state of the union
How there's no one now in power thinking of me
I was saying how we ought to try to fix it
Find a leader who is not afraid to be
Then a voice came out of the darkness
Saying "Tear the system down"
Tear it down
I was thinking 'bout how that was very crazy
And I tried to find a way to tell him so
But when I did I used a word that was quite nasty
How the policeman heard me now I'll never know
Then a voice came out of the darkness
Saying "Tear the system down"
Tear it down - down to the ground
I was wrestled of to one side of the theatre
And they said I'd have to go right to jail
They don't permit coarse language in their city
But they did accept a large amount of bail
Then a voice came out of the darkness
Saying "Tear the system down"
Tear it down - down to the ground
How there's no one now in power thinking of me
I was saying how we ought to try to fix it
Find a leader who is not afraid to be
Then a voice came out of the darkness
Saying "Tear the system down"
Tear it down
I was thinking 'bout how that was very crazy
And I tried to find a way to tell him so
But when I did I used a word that was quite nasty
How the policeman heard me now I'll never know
Then a voice came out of the darkness
Saying "Tear the system down"
Tear it down - down to the ground
I was wrestled of to one side of the theatre
And they said I'd have to go right to jail
They don't permit coarse language in their city
But they did accept a large amount of bail
Then a voice came out of the darkness
Saying "Tear the system down"
Tear it down - down to the ground
Goodbye lyrics - Chicago
Flying high, touch the sky
Going to places I never knew
So goodbye
And hello, long ago
I can see history
Standing still, a mystery - if you will
Pardon me
I'm away for the day
Feels so good to be soaring
'Cause L.A. was so boring
Goodbye
There must be room for growing
Somewhere else and I'm going
Goodbye
The days and nights have gone dry
The last three whole years have flashed by
Going to places I never knew
So goodbye
And hello, long ago
I can see history
Standing still, a mystery - if you will
Pardon me
I'm away for the day
Feels so good to be soaring
'Cause L.A. was so boring
Goodbye
There must be room for growing
Somewhere else and I'm going
Goodbye
The days and nights have gone dry
The last three whole years have flashed by
Alma Mater lyrics - Chicago
Looking back a few short years
When we made our plans and played the cards
The way they fell
Clinging to our confidence
We stood on the threshold of the goal
That we knew, dear
And though we had our fights
Had our short tempered nights
It couldn't pull our dreams apart
All our needs and all our wants
Drawn together in our heart
We felt it from the very start
It's all happened recently
Now we're living in that dream
We had not long ago
Everything is going fine
And now we just have to keep in mind
We must set brand new goals
We must not lose control
Of the possibility of the discovery
That would let everybody see
That we were just meant to be
When we made our plans and played the cards
The way they fell
Clinging to our confidence
We stood on the threshold of the goal
That we knew, dear
And though we had our fights
Had our short tempered nights
It couldn't pull our dreams apart
All our needs and all our wants
Drawn together in our heart
We felt it from the very start
It's all happened recently
Now we're living in that dream
We had not long ago
Everything is going fine
And now we just have to keep in mind
We must set brand new goals
We must not lose control
Of the possibility of the discovery
That would let everybody see
That we were just meant to be

Loneliness Is Just A Word lyrics - Chicago
You don't know how bad it's been
Since you been gone
Let me tell you how bad it's been
Since you been gone
People speak but I don't hear
Things all around seem to be unclear
I don't know
What will become of the love you turned off
What will become of the need you turned off
Loneliness is just a word
That's very cold
People stare but they don't see
All of the hurt that's inside me
I don't know
Since you been gone
Let me tell you how bad it's been
Since you been gone
People speak but I don't hear
Things all around seem to be unclear
I don't know
What will become of the love you turned off
What will become of the need you turned off
Loneliness is just a word
That's very cold
People stare but they don't see
All of the hurt that's inside me
I don't know
What Else Can I Say lyrics - Chicago
Where are you taking me?
I can't follow you there
What do you have in mind?
You know that I don't care
Where do you think I'm at?
Thought I made it clear
Please don't follow me back down
While I'm standing here
Early in the morning
Waiting for me to rise
The light of the new day dawning
Catches the sun in your eyes
Tonight,tonight, tonight
I'm standing here
And it's clear
I miss her
Tonight, she's so far away
What else can I say?
Because I know that she will never let me down
And I know she's gonna love me too
Tonight, tonight, tonight
I'm standing here
And it's clear
I need her
Tonight, she's so far away
What else can I say?
Because I know that she will never let me down
And I know that she is gonna love me too
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I can't follow you there
What do you have in mind?
You know that I don't care
Where do you think I'm at?

Early in the morning
Waiting for me to rise
The light of the new day dawning
Catches the sun in your eyes

I Don't Want Your Money lyrics - Chicago
I don't want your money
It don't mean a thing
I don't need no fancy clothes
Or a diamond ring
I don't have to ride in style
In your limousine
I don't want no trouble
Tax or Uncle Sam
All I want is you
I want to be your natural man
I don't need your prestige
'Cause I got my pride
I don't want your social standing
I'd rather stand outside
I don't have no time to worry
'Bout your greedy jive
I don't want your money
I don't like that game
All I want is you
I want to be your natural man.
It don't mean a thing
I don't need no fancy clothes
Or a diamond ring
I don't have to ride in style
In your limousine
I don't want no trouble
Tax or Uncle Sam
All I want is you
I want to be your natural man
I don't need your prestige
'Cause I got my pride
I don't want your social standing
I'd rather stand outside
I don't have no time to worry
'Bout your greedy jive
I don't want your money
I don't like that game
All I want is you
I want to be your natural man.
Flight 602 lyrics - Chicago
You are on a plane now
And on you way up north
Canada is so far from where you want to be
Be in California, with sunshine in your heart
But you know ther are people
That you have to be
Have to be
Have to be what they say you are
What you always wanted to be
Wanted to be
Wanted to be just a man fulfilled
But a little more free
A little more free
You are in a hotel
And in your room alone
Lying there, but not knowing where you're s'posed to be
Be thinking of B-3's and Leslies going round
And you know there are people
That are going to be
Goin' to be
Goin' to see what they say you are
What you've always wanted to be
Wanted to be
I only wanted to be just a man fulfilled
But a little more free
A little more free
A little more free
And on you way up north
Canada is so far from where you want to be
Be in California, with sunshine in your heart
But you know ther are people
That you have to be
Have to be
Have to be what they say you are
What you always wanted to be
Wanted to be
Wanted to be just a man fulfilled
But a little more free
A little more free
You are in a hotel
And in your room alone
Lying there, but not knowing where you're s'posed to be
Be thinking of B-3's and Leslies going round
And you know there are people
That are going to be
Goin' to be
Goin' to see what they say you are
What you've always wanted to be
Wanted to be
I only wanted to be just a man fulfilled
But a little more free
A little more free
A little more free
Free lyrics - Chicago
I just want to be free
I just want to be free
I want to be free of all the hurt
Free of all the pain
I want to just end these lonely hours
End these lonely days
I just want to be free
I just want to be free
I just want to be free
I just want to be free
I just want to be free
I want to be free of all the hurt
Free of all the pain
I want to just end these lonely hours
End these lonely days
I just want to be free
I just want to be free
I just want to be free
I just want to be free
At The Sunrise lyrics - Chicago
How could I be happy
Without her by my side
Without her smiling face
At the sunrise
How could I keep living
With emptiness inside
With no one there to touch
At the sunrise
She gave meaning to my words
She helped me find my way
The time I had to leave her
Leave her all alone
The way she looked at me
Made me cry
I know she understands me
She knows I'm feelin' bad
Until I'm back beside her
At the sunrise
Without her by my side
Without her smiling face
At the sunrise
How could I keep living
With emptiness inside
With no one there to touch
At the sunrise
She gave meaning to my words
She helped me find my way
The time I had to leave her
Leave her all alone
The way she looked at me
Made me cry
I know she understands me
She knows I'm feelin' bad
Until I'm back beside her
At the sunrise
Mother lyrics - Chicago
Driving down the concrete beams
Looking around and it now seems
Mama Earth is nowhere
Gone from your eyes
Hidden in the crust
Of man's scientific dreams
She is gone
Natural man took her natural face
Made it a strange and alien place
You can't bear to look
'Cause she ain't there
Our Mother has been raped
And left to die in disgrace
She is gone
Looking around and it now seems
Mama Earth is nowhere
Gone from your eyes
Hidden in the crust
Of man's scientific dreams
She is gone
Natural man took her natural face
Made it a strange and alien place
You can't bear to look
'Cause she ain't there
Our Mother has been raped
And left to die in disgrace
She is gone
Lowdown lyrics - Chicago
Oh my
Life has passed me by
The country I was brought up in
Fell apart and died
Oh no
Love's no longer there
Cold wind blew away the sun
That used to warm the air
Lowdown
Ooo! Feelin' pretty bad
Feelin' like I lost the best friend
That I ever had
Lowdown
Ooo! Got to find a way
Got to make the people see
The way I feel today
Life has passed me by
The country I was brought up in
Fell apart and died
Oh no
Love's no longer there
Cold wind blew away the sun
That used to warm the air
Lowdown
Ooo! Feelin' pretty bad
Feelin' like I lost the best friend
That I ever had
Lowdown
Ooo! Got to find a way
Got to make the people see
The way I feel today
A Hard Risin' Morning Without Breakfast lyrics - Chicago
Today when I awoke
The morning blues hung over me
So, I looked it straight in the eye
I jumped into the shower
For 'bout an hour
Aw it was fine
Yeah, It helps me all the time
It's soothin' to mind
Just to see those blues
Go slippin' down the drain
Now I usually have my breakfast
Which consists of tasty spam
Yeah, I could eat it all day long
But I only love one brand
And I can't find it way out here
So, I have to take a pass
And settle for some hash
When I drive and you're not here
Oh, sweet sweet spam
The morning blues hung over me
So, I looked it straight in the eye
I jumped into the shower
For 'bout an hour
Aw it was fine
Yeah, It helps me all the time
It's soothin' to mind
Just to see those blues
Go slippin' down the drain
Now I usually have my breakfast
Which consists of tasty spam
Yeah, I could eat it all day long
But I only love one brand
And I can't find it way out here
So, I have to take a pass
And settle for some hash
When I drive and you're not here
Oh, sweet sweet spam
Off To Work lyrics - Chicago
Now I must be off to work
I sweat all night and feel their nerve
Takin' things together power
Lord, give me strength to make these hours
Soon, my long work day is done
And I run home for the phone, yeah
An hour in the shower
I sweat all night and feel their nerve
Takin' things together power
Lord, give me strength to make these hours
Soon, my long work day is done
And I run home for the phone, yeah
An hour in the shower
Fallin' Out lyrics - Chicago
Now I lay me down to sleep
And dream of my treasure map
It shows me
Things my maypole's buried at
And I dream of all the fun I have
When my maypole comes out to play
Yeah, and I dream things I can't say
Or I'll get put away
So now, I better stop
Before I give them all away
And dream of my treasure map
It shows me
Things my maypole's buried at
And I dream of all the fun I have
When my maypole comes out to play
Yeah, and I dream things I can't say
Or I'll get put away
So now, I better stop
Before I give them all away
Dreamin' Home lyrics - Chicago
Dream, dream, dream
Dreams in the night
Take me back to you
The day comes
With it's friend
The Morning blues again
Dreams in the night
Take me back to you
The day comes
With it's friend
The Morning blues again
Morning Blues Again lyrics - Chicago
So when you wake up this morning
And those blues are hangin' 'round, yeah
Just listen baby
And I'll tell you what to do
I just may join you, 'neath your bed
And turn on your electric brandy
Woah, and turn our thoughts to me
'Cause you know where I'll be
And then you can join me
In my hour in the shower
Join me in my hour in the shower.
And those blues are hangin' 'round, yeah
Just listen baby
And I'll tell you what to do
I just may join you, 'neath your bed
And turn on your electric brandy
Woah, and turn our thoughts to me
'Cause you know where I'll be
And then you can join me
In my hour in the shower
Join me in my hour in the shower.
When All The Laughter Dies In Sorrow lyrics - Chicago
When all the laughter dies in sorrow
And the tears have risen to a flood
When all the wars have found a cause
In human wisdom and in blood
Do you think they'll cry in sadness
Do you think the eye will blink
Do you think they'll curse the madness
Do you even think they'll think
When all the great galactic systems
Sigh to a frozen halt in space
Do you think there will be some remnant
Of beauty of the human race
Do you think there will be a vestige
Or a sniffle or a cosmic tear
Do you think a greater thinking thing
Will give a damn that man was here
And the tears have risen to a flood
When all the wars have found a cause
In human wisdom and in blood
Do you think they'll cry in sadness
Do you think the eye will blink
Do you think they'll curse the madness
Do you even think they'll think
When all the great galactic systems
Sigh to a frozen halt in space
Do you think there will be some remnant
Of beauty of the human race
Do you think there will be a vestige
Or a sniffle or a cosmic tear
Do you think a greater thinking thing
Will give a damn that man was here
Movin' In lyrics - Chicago
We know it's hard for you to see
That this is all we want to be
A constant urge within us grows
We know it
To do the thing that we propose
We know it
We tried so hard to make the grade
Yes we know it
By making music day to day
Yes we know it
Although our task is never done
You know we know it
You ought to know it's just begun
You know we know it
And now it's time for us to say
But most of all we like to play
A song or two that makes you feel
We know it
Like all the good in you is real
We know it
Together now we've lots to hear
Yes we know it
To warm my heart to shed a tear
Yes we know it
So come and listen if you choose
You know we know it
And feel a joy you'll never lose
You know we know it
So everybody listen
Yeah
Everybody please give a listen
That this is all we want to be
A constant urge within us grows
We know it
To do the thing that we propose
We know it
We tried so hard to make the grade
Yes we know it

Yes we know it
Although our task is never done
You know we know it
You ought to know it's just begun
You know we know it
And now it's time for us to say
But most of all we like to play
A song or two that makes you feel

The Road lyrics - Chicago
If you'd like to get together
Then come right over to me
Ooh, We can do anything
That you like to do
If you'd like to give your love
Then please just feel free
Because I may be gone tomorrow
And not even know your name
Now please don't misunderstand my loneliness
Let's never ever talk of time
Cause friends may fade away
And our hopes will say goodnight
And our friendship would be lost
It would be such a waste of time
So let's just
Let's have a good thing girl
And let's not worry
Let's do everything we want
And let's not cry
When it's over
When I leave
Our thing won't die
If you really understand
Then come right over to me
We can play together for a while
And still be free
Then come right over to me
Ooh, We can do anything
That you like to do
If you'd like to give your love
Then please just feel free
Because I may be gone tomorrow
And not even know your name
Now please don't misunderstand my loneliness
Let's never ever talk of time
Cause friends may fade away
And our hopes will say goodnight
And our friendship would be lost
It would be such a waste of time
So let's just
Let's have a good thing girl
And let's not worry
Let's do everything we want
And let's not cry
When it's over
When I leave
Our thing won't die
If you really understand
Then come right over to me
We can play together for a while
And still be free
Poem For The People lyrics - Chicago
If the people only knew
If they could visualize
Just open their eyes
Even stop to think about
If they could open their minds
They could get beyond
The world's a funny place you know
Most of what goes on
Is rarely funny
Rarely funny
Could the people understand
In only whisper and screams
And colorless dreams
Could they finally comprehend
If they could suddenly see
And suddenly feel
The world's a funny place you know
Most of what goes on
Is rarely funny
Rarely funny
If they could visualize
Just open their eyes
Even stop to think about
If they could open their minds
They could get beyond
The world's a funny place you know
Most of what goes on
Is rarely funny
Rarely funny
Could the people understand
In only whisper and screams
And colorless dreams
Could they finally comprehend
If they could suddenly see
And suddenly feel
The world's a funny place you know
Most of what goes on
Is rarely funny
Rarely funny

Wake Up Sunshine lyrics - Chicago
Wake up sunshine
Open up your sleepy eyes for me
Can't have you hidin'
I've been waiting all the night
People waiting for the light
Sunshine, sunshine
Wake up sunshine
Let me feel your warm sunlight on me
Can't have you hidin'
Night was long and night was cold
But today we're one day older
Sunshine, you make my life sunshine
You know I'm talkin' to you
I know you're knowin' it too
So just stop hidin' your face
Just open your eyes
Just smile your smile
I'm talkin' to you
Wake up sunshine
Ooh it's good to have you here with me
Can't have you hidin'
Can't imagine what I'd do
But feel too lonely without you
Sunshine, sunshine
You got to wake up girl
And face the day ahead
Open up your sleepy eyes for me
Can't have you hidin'
I've been waiting all the night
People waiting for the light
Sunshine, sunshine
Wake up sunshine
Let me feel your warm sunlight on me
Can't have you hidin'
Night was long and night was cold
But today we're one day older
Sunshine, you make my life sunshine
You know I'm talkin' to you
I know you're knowin' it too
So just stop hidin' your face
Just open your eyes
Just smile your smile
I'm talkin' to you
Wake up sunshine
Ooh it's good to have you here with me
Can't have you hidin'
Can't imagine what I'd do
But feel too lonely without you
Sunshine, sunshine
You got to wake up girl
And face the day ahead
Make Me Smile lyrics - Chicago
Children play in the park, they don't know
I'm alone in the dark, even though
Time and time again I see your face smiling inside
I'm so happy
That you love me
Life is lovely
When you're near me
Tell me you will stay
Make me smile
Living life is just a game so they say
All the games we used to play fade away
We may now enjoy the dreams we shared so long ago
Oh my darling, got to have you. Feel the magic when I hold you
Cry sweet tears of joy, touch the sky
Now I need you more than ever. No more crying - we're together
Tell me you will stay. Make me smile
I'm alone in the dark, even though
Time and time again I see your face smiling inside
I'm so happy
That you love me
Life is lovely
When you're near me
Tell me you will stay
Make me smile
Living life is just a game so they say
All the games we used to play fade away
We may now enjoy the dreams we shared so long ago
Oh my darling, got to have you. Feel the magic when I hold you
Cry sweet tears of joy, touch the sky
Now I need you more than ever. No more crying - we're together
Tell me you will stay. Make me smile
So Much To Say, So Much To Give lyrics - Chicago
So hard to be
Free to
Love only you
People
Starin' at me
Try to
Take you away
There's no
Time to delay
We've got to live for today
I've got
So much to give
There is
So much to say
Night after night
Day after day
In spite of our words
They all turn away
Free to
Love only you
People
Starin' at me
Try to
Take you away
There's no
Time to delay
We've got to live for today
I've got
So much to give
There is
So much to say
Night after night
Day after day
In spite of our words
They all turn away

As time goes on,

Just what you mean

And now,
Now that you're near,
Promise your love
That I've waited to share
And dreams
Of our moments together
Color my world with hope of loving you

Fancy Colours lyrics - Chicago
Going where the orange sun has never died
And your swirling marble eyes shine
Laughing
Burning through the light
Bittersweet the drops of life
Memories only fading
Fancy Colours
Fancy Colours
All we ever did see
When we're down at the sea
We see things so very bright at the sea
Fancy Colours
Fancy Colours
All we ever can do
The morning covered with dew
We do things so very fine at the dew
Fancy Colours
Fancy Colours
All we ever do hear
The world whether we're hear or there
We hear things so very fine when we're there
And your swirling marble eyes shine
Laughing
Burning through the light
Bittersweet the drops of life
Memories only fading
Fancy Colours
Fancy Colours
All we ever did see
When we're down at the sea
We see things so very bright at the sea
Fancy Colours
Fancy Colours
All we ever can do
The morning covered with dew
We do things so very fine at the dew
Fancy Colours
Fancy Colours
All we ever do hear
The world whether we're hear or there
We hear things so very fine when we're there
25 Or 6 To 4 lyrics - Chicago
Waiting for the break of day
Searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky
Giving up I close my eyes
Sitting cross-legged on the floor
25 or 6 to 4
Staring blindly into space
Getting up to splash my face
Wanting just to stay awake
Wondering how much I can take
Should I try to do some more
25 or 6 to 4
Feeling like I ought to sleep
Spinning room is sinking deep
Searching for something to say
Waiting for the break of day
25 or 6 to 4
25 or 6 to 4
Searching for something to say
Flashing lights against the sky
Giving up I close my eyes
Sitting cross-legged on the floor
25 or 6 to 4
Staring blindly into space
Getting up to splash my face
Wanting just to stay awake
Wondering how much I can take
Should I try to do some more
25 or 6 to 4
Feeling like I ought to sleep
Spinning room is sinking deep
Searching for something to say
Waiting for the break of day
25 or 6 to 4
25 or 6 to 4
Memories Of Love lyrics - Chicago
A warm summer night
The moon above us
The stars for a wish come true
Are memories of love
A motionless pound
A beautiful swan
The smell of flowers growing near
Make me shed a tear
Memories of love gone by
Make me stop and cry
Now I kneel and pray
For the lord took her today
And all that's left to think of
Are memories of her love
The moon above us
The stars for a wish come true
Are memories of love
A motionless pound
A beautiful swan
The smell of flowers growing near
Make me shed a tear
Memories of love gone by
Make me stop and cry
Now I kneel and pray
For the lord took her today
And all that's left to think of
Are memories of her love
It Better End Soon 1st Movement lyrics - Chicago
Can't stand it no more
The people dying
Crying for help for so many years
But nobody hears

Can't you take the time?
Just to feel
Just to feel what is real
If you do
Then you'll see that we got a raw deal
They're killing everybody
I wish it weren't true
They say we got to make war
Or the economy will fall
But if we don't stop
We won't be around no more
They're ruining this world
For you and me
The big heads of state
Won't let us be free
They made the rules once
But it didn't work out
Now we must try again
Before they kill us off
No more dying!
No more killing
No more dying
No more fighting
We don't want to die
No, we don't want to die
Please let's change it all
Please let's make it all
Good for the present
And better for the future
Let's just love one another
Let's show peace for each other
We can make it happen
Let's just make it happen
We can change this world
Please let's change this world
Please let's make it happen for our children
For our women
Change the world
Please make it happen
Come on
Come on
Please
Come on
It's up to me
It's up to you
So let's do it now
Yeah
Do it now
Can't stand it no more
The people cheating
Burning each other
They know it ain't right
How can it be right
Better end soon my friend
It better end soon my friend
