Mat Kearney "Chicago" lyrics

Chicago

Meet me in ChicagoDown by the water lineStep across the gold coastTo my heart and to your wineMaybe CincinnatiWith a trip in the morning lightStep across the branchesI will follow you over the Rhine

And it takes one to know oneThat's what they always sayI've waited for the dawnAnd I've waited for the dayOh, I'm coming lowAnd I'm willing to prayStepping through the hazeOne more day on a wide open roadOn and on and the lights come and goAnd everything I might not even knowWhat is the distance?On through the resistance singing

Meet me in PortlandRoast here in the summer lightSee you in the evergreensI will catch you down on the Northeast sideAnd maybe San DiegoMoonlight at the lowest tideSee you in the shoreline breakerStepping over my maker's line

And it takes one to know oneThat's what they always sayI've waited for the dawnAnd I've waited for the dayOh, I'm coming lowAnd I'm willing to prayStepping through the hazeOne more day on a wide open roadOn and on and the lights come and goAnd everything I might not even knowWhat is the distance?On through the resistance singing

You met me on the backstreetsRight there at the end of the lineWhere a spark turns into fireAnd a tear falls into life

And it takes one to know oneThat's what they always sayI've waited for the dawnAnd I've waited for the dayOh, I'm coming lowAnd I'm willing to prayStepping through the hazeOne more day on a wide open roadOn and on and the lights come and goAnd everything I might not even knowWhat is the distance?On through the resistanceOn a wide open roadOn and on and the lights come and goAnd everything I might not even knowWhat is the distance?On through the resistance singing

Meet me in ChicagoDown by the water lineYou stepped across the gold coastStepped into this heart of mine
