lyrics

The wind blows off the lake, chills your bones
Veins of velvet undergo a change, like girls born in October
Anchored on the cusp of 'good old days'
I find it strange you didn't fall in love with women from all over

Do you get enough moonlight in your big city?
Or do you fight over the pull back to our hometown?
Grateful you're not on your own now?
Do you get enough moonlight in your big city?
Or do my memories stare you down?

Were we in love long ago?
Are you someone I still know?
He signs his letters "Love from Chicago"

Correspondence never was your strength
I hear you're going to great lengths
To write new stories all your own
You ask if I remember her
You're acting like a prisoner
It's all there in your signature

Do you get enough sunlight between the skyscrapers' reminders of
The heights to which you both aspire?
Her heights you always did admire
Are you proud of how you've grown up?
Gone away just to come home and back for her?

Were we strangers in our day?
Was I standing in your way?
(What's that valediction say?)
He signs his letters 'Love From Chicago'

Have you loved her all this time?
Were you ever even mine?
"Love From Chicago"

You can keep your 'Love From Chicago"
Go on, keep your "Love From Chicago"
Still signing letters "Love From Chicago"
