A Song For Richard And His Friends lyrics - Chicago
If you will think now, then you will see
How you can change things
People are waiting, turning away
Tired of killing
Hey now
Will you go away
We're so tired
Of things that you say
Even though you never said word that would help anyone but yourself
Tomorrow is such a bad dream
Oh, bad dream
If you stay now
It will only get worse
Let us pray now
'Cause the truth really hurts
Have to be a man so today with your brothers and sisters lay dying
Tomorrow is such a bad dream
Yeah, such a bad dream
Listen
Please be gone
Go away and leave us alone
Bring police
Go away and leave us in peace
Yeah
Please be gone
Go away and leave us alone
Bring police
Go away and leave us in peace
Will you go now
Will you take all your friends
Woah now, if you'd stood like a man
Even though I know that you cannot be blamed all alone for all the sadness you've caused
Tomorrow is such a bad dream
Yeah, such a bad dream
Oh yeah, such a bad dream
Dig it
If you will think now you will then you will see
How we can change things
People are waiting, turning away
Tired of killing
All Roads Lead To You lyrics - Chicago
Headed north on a one way trip
I never thought I'd be back this way
Never thought I'd be missing you
Enough to suffer for the whole night through
Headed south and I didn't look back
I rolled the wind off the beaten track
Tried running from the thought of you
Haunted down by what I know is true
To the north, to the south
It don't matter
Every road leads to you
I'm coming home
All roads lead to you
Wherever I go
Every time I told you
I was just passing through
What my heart didn't know
Was all roads lead to you
Headed east on an Amtrak train
I hit the city in the pouring rain
Never thought I'd be calling you
Every hour from that hotel room
Headed west on a jumbo jet
I rode off into the red sunset
Stood there knocking on the devil's door
Wondering what the hell I'm searching for
To the east to the west
It don't matter
Every road leads to you
I'm coming home
All roads lead to you
Wherever I go
Every time I told you
I was just passing through
What my heart didn't know
Was all roads lead to you
All my life
The winding road I followed
Has led me straight to your arms
All roads lead to you
Gotta get back to you baby!
Wherever I go
Every time I told you
I was just passing through
What my heart didn't know
Was all roads lead to you
I'm coming home to you baby!
All roads lead to you
I'm coming home!
All roads lead to you
Never going away again!
All roads lead to you
All roads lead to you
All roads lead to you
All roads lead to you
Gotta get back to you baby
Closer To You lyrics - Chicago
Have you seen the ladies passing by?
They don't seem to notice
That I'm lonesome and I cry
But soon they'll listen
I can tell you, tell you why
I'm gonna make this record
Gonna go sky high
I just wanna be closer to you-ooh-ooh
I just wanna see if you can be moved, baby, oh
I don't wanna be a fool for you, no
I'm goin' to the city
All the hustlers in the street
And can't you imagine
Just where my head might be
Bright lights are shinning
I can see in front of me at night
Clockwork deception
Won't save us, set us free
I just wanna be closer to you-ooh-ooh
I don't wanna be a fool for you
I just wanna see if you can be moved
I just wanna be closer to you
I'm not supposed to be alone
You know I'm not supposed to be alone
Oh no, oh no
We're coming to this country
Gonna play for all our friends
Yeah, we got positive action
Got energy to last
So go down 'cause we're cookin'
Let the rhythm get you high
And bring all the ladies
Tell them why, why, why
I just wanna be closer to you-ooh-ooh
I don't wanna be a fool for you
I just wanna see if you can be moved
Closer to you
Daddy's Favorite Fool lyrics - Chicago
So young, she never fell in love
Her time has come
Almost everyone holds the key to open up the door
Your time has come
Let me show you how
Let me love you now
Let me lay you down
She's a lady
Who never gets too close
Who never lets it go
She's so sensual to her lovers
When they're playing by her rules
Intellectual to the others
She's as stubborn as a mule
Always sensible with her mother
She's her Daddy's favorite fool
She's so cool
Sometime soon your gonna find
It'll be alright
It's been such a long time waiting to remind you
That your time has come
Let me show you how (Let me show you how)
Let me love you now (Let me love you now)
Let me lay you down
She's a lady
Who never gets too close
Who never lets it go
She's so sensual to her lovers
When they're playing by her rules
Intellectual to the others
She's as stubborn as a mule
Always sensible with her mother
She's her Daddy's favorite fool
She's so cool
She's so sensual to her lovers
When they're playing by her rules
Always sensible with her mother
She's her Daddy's favorite fool
She's so sexual to her lovers
When they're playing by her rules
Intellectual to the others
She's as stubborn as a mule
She's so sensual to her lovers
When they're playing by her rules
Always sensible with her mother
But she's Papa's favorite fool
She's so sensual to her lovers
When they're playing by her rules
Intellectual to the others
She's as stubborn as a mule
Get On This lyrics - Chicago
In the middle of a dream
Thought I saw the sacred Love Supreme
So beautiful, yet so obscene
But I'm not sure I'm sleeping
And in a golden sun
I saw Hitler, Elvis, and angels
A little baby with a big gun
I saw Jesus kissing the Devil
Gonna take some time for me to
Get on this, get on this
Gonna take an angel's kiss to
Get on this, get on this
When I go to sleep tonight
I must remember to close my eyes
Saw a mother, take a needle
Burn in water, drown in flame
A soft spot for a hard habit
She had a baby that had no name
They say a day will come
When a bright light shines all around you
The perfect Disney millennium
Where only happiness will surround you
Gonna take some time for me to
Get on this, get on this
Gonna take an angel's kiss to
Get on this, get on this
When I go to sleep tonight
I must remember to close my eyes
The sins of hypocrisy
Turn the world upside down
Lies in the hearts of children
Destroy their world without a sound
And in a full moon sun
I saw kings turn angels to ashes
Beside a bonfire in Babylon
Stands an empty house full of cages
Gonna take some time for me to
Get on this, get on this
Gonna take an angel's kiss to
Get on this, get on this
When I go to sleep tonight
I must remember to close my eyes
Gonna take some time for me to
Get on this, get on this
Gonna take an angel's kiss to
Get on this, get on this
When I go to sleep tonight
I must remember to close my eyes
Good For Nothing lyrics - Chicago & David Foster
I helped my good friend's brother
Out of trouble when he was in jail
I was rushed 'cause I got lucky
Paid his lawyer and I paid his bail
Glad to be able just to pay the price
The price it took to set him free
I never heard a single "thank you" at all
You'd think by now I could see
All the good that I did was for nothing, aah
All the good that I did was for nothing
Why don't I just let it be?
I fought for two young lovers
New York artists they were on the run
Got them out to California
One was gifted and the other was fun
Merchants will always be merchants, of course
But an artist's is a fragile life
And it's something I have always believed
The memory cuts like a knife
All the good that I did was for nothing, aah
All the good that I did was for nothing, aah
All the good that I did was for nothing
All the good that I did
(All the good that I did)
Why can't I just let it be?
All the good that I did was for nothing, aah
All the good that I did
All the good that I did was for nothing
All the good I did
All the good I did
All the good I did was for nothing
Hearts In Trouble lyrics - Chicago
(from "Days of Thunder" soundtrack)
Nothings gonna change your head, you wouldn't let it
Nothings gonna change your mind
You just wanna let ahead and you can't forget it
Leaving all the best behind
Take a look at yourself in the mirror
You'll find, you'll find
(Hearts in trouble)
It's hard to tell when you're losing touch
You can't find love when you got so much
(Hearts in trouble)
Don't you know that I'll be there for you
Turn around and see what love can do for you
Somethin' gettin' in your way, you can't shake it
It's never gonna let you go
Running from your yesterday, you won't make it
If you never let it go
All the things that you need
You've been leaving behind
Soon your heart's gonna bleed
You've been losing your mind, you can't hide
(Hearts in trouble)
It's hard to tell when you're losing touch
You can't find love when you got so much
(Hearts in trouble)
Don't you know that I'll be there for you
Turn around and see what love can do for you
Never know what you got
Till it's moved down the line
Take a look at yourself in the mirror
You'll find, you'll find
(Hearts in... hearts in trouble)
It's hard to tell when you're losing touch
You can't find love when you got so much
(Hearts in trouble)
Don't you know that I'll be there for you
Turn around and see what love can do
Somethings gonna turn your head, you're gonna get it
Somethings gonna change your mind
Here Is Where We Begin lyrics - Chicago
Most of my life
I was living without you
Something always seemed so incomplete
Through the years
I was thinking about you
Waiting for the moment we would meet
How do you do?
Good to see you!
What are your thoughts?
Did you need to
Had so long 'til the feeling
Something was wrong
(There are no) Here is where we begin
It's all very clear
For this is the end
Of being alone
We've waited so long
We'll make it forever
Nights I would dream
Of the day we made contact
It's come true
Now I'm standing at your door
After a time did you come to forget me?
Here I am
Now I'm standing at your door
How do you do?
Good to see you!
What are your thoughts?
Did you need to
Had so long 'til the feeling
Something was wrong
(There are no) Here is where we begin
It's all very clear
For this is the end
Of being alone
We've waited so long
We'll make it forever
(There are no) Here is where we begin
It's all very clear
For this is the end
Of being alone
We've waited so long
We'll make it forever
(There are no) Here is where we begin
It's all very clear
For this is the end
Of being alone
We've waited so long
We'll make it forever
(There are no) Here (Oh here is where we begin) is where we begin
(It's all so clear) It's all very clear
(This is the end) For this is the end
Of being alone
We've waited so long
Magical Mystery Tour lyrics - Chicago

(Roll up! Roll up for the magical mystery tour!

Roll up, roll up for the mystery tour
Roll up, roll up for the mystery tour
Roll up (And that's an invitation), roll up for the mystery tour

More Today Than Yesterday lyrics - Chicago (feat. Les Deux Love Orchestra)
(originally by Spiral Starecase)
I don't remember what day it was
I didn't notice what time it was
All I know is that I fell in love with you
And if all my dreams come true
I'll be spending time with you
Every day's a new day in love with you
With each day comes a new way of loving you
Every time I kiss your lips my mind starts to wander
And if all my dreams come true
I'll be spending time with you
Oh, I love you more today than yesterday
But not as much as tomorrow
I love you more today than yesterday
But, darling, not as much as tomorrow
Tomorrow's date means springtime's just a day away
Cupid, we don't need ya now, be on your way
I thank the Lord for love like ours that grows ever stronger
And I always will be true
I know you feel the same way, too
Oh, I love you more today than yesterday
But not as much as tomorrow
I love you more today than yesterday
But only half as much as tomorrow
Every day's a new day, every time I love ya
Every way's a new way, every time I love ya
Every day's a new day, every time I kiss ya
Paris lyrics - Chicago
Baby, let's go to England
We'll sail across the sea
Then we'll stay in Amsterdam
Just to feel free
And to Norway where the sun shines endlessly
Maybe we'll go to Paris
We could write a book
And if we just have to stay
We could learn to cook
Drive across the south of France and have a look
And see the Holy Land
I reckon Iran
And lots of sand in [?]
We'll play the night away
We'll go to Pakistan
Afghanistan
And we could stay to better places
[?] to me
Baby, it rains in Hong Kong
It's beautiful to see
Take the count of ferry boats
Rather drink for free
Baby, walk the high and run the hills with me
Baby, let's go to Paris
To Venice, and to Rome
Open up about it, now
The world can be our home
There's no reason why the world can't be our home
Secrets Of The Heart lyrics - Chicago
Now, I can see it in your eyes
It's a truth you can't deny
You're telling me goodbye
I can see it in your eyes
You never said you'd stay forever, girl
Always knew you'd reach for the world
And now, I remember you seemed so restless from the start
I know, there's a loner in you that always feels too tired to be true
You need to live a world apart
Keeping the secrets of your heart
Now, as the sun is sinking down
Don't you leave without a sound
I wish you'd turn around
You never tried to hide your hopes and dreams
Never said you found there with me
Still, I pretend to myself I'd get through you're gone
But I, could've been what you needed with all my love
I still didn't reached you there
Where you live a world apart
Keeping the secrets of your heart
Just when I believe you might be changing
Ready to love me, share my life
I turn to see you walk away
You never said you'd stay forever, girl
Always knew you'd reach for the world
And now, I remember you seemed so distant from the start
I know, there's a loner in you that always felt too tired to be true
You need to live a world apart
Keeping the secrets of your heart
Keeping the secrets of your heart
Show Me A Sign lyrics - Chicago
I wonder what's been on your mind
Baby, I don't know
Something strange is going on
Seems you've been so far away
Got to bring you back, next to me
Is there a thread we can hold on to
Or just a broken seam
Is there a promise for tomorrow
Or just a shattered dream
If only we could see things through
Show me a sign
Show me a sign, girl
You won't turn away
Hold on to the light
Never let go
I'll show you the way
Even in the worst of times
If we got love
Baby, we can work it out
I need to know you'll always be
Here by my side, next to me
I'll be the one that you can lean on
I'd never leave you behind
We've got enough to build a dream on
So baby, say you'll be mine
You need me just like I need you
Show me a sign
Show me a sign, girl
You won't turn away
Hold on to the light
Never let go
I'll show you the way
I believe our love's a miracle
We can find a way
Listen, baby
Show me a sign
You won't turn away
Show me a sign
Show me a sign
You won't turn away
Hold on to the light
Never let go
I'll show you the way
Show me a sign
Show me a sign, girl
Won't turn away
Don't turn away
Hold on to the light
Never let go
I'll show you the way
The Only One lyrics - Chicago
What's been going on
I've been trying to get through to you
Has it really been that long?
I've been thinking about you baby
And the way it used to be
There's so many things I wanna say
But will the words come out all wrong?
After all that's said and done
You're still the only one
You're the only one for me
I'm the only one for you
Baby can't you see, you're still the only one
Each and every night I pray
Hoping there'll come a day
Baby you believe, you're still the only one
Tried to find a way
To get back inside your heart again
If I let you walk away
I'd be dying without you baby
So I just keep holding on
Don't you know that we were meant to be?
But then I knew it all along
After all that we've been through
(We've been through)
You're still the only one
You're the only one for me
I'm the only one for you
Baby can't you see, you're still the only one?
Each and every night I pray
Hoping there will come a day
Baby you believe, you're still the only one
And the fire of our love
Keeps me running back to you
And no matter where you are (where you are)
I will never be that far away
You're the only one for me
I'm the only one for you
Baby can't you see, you're still the only one?
Each and every night I pray
Hoping there will come a day
Baby you believe, you're still the only one
Ain't no need to wonder why
I'll love you 'til the day I die
Baby I believe, you're still the only one
You're the only one
You're the only one
You're the only one for me sweet baby
You're the only one
You're the only one
You're the only one for me sweet darling
Got to find a way
