lyrics

You said you're goin, goin' to Chicago
A perfect stranger on the winds I used to know
Through all your fairy tales and scary trails
In time, I hope
That there's a road that defines your destiny
And it's bathed in gold
Shinin' on tomorrow
Blinding all your sorrows baby

It's a distant foreign place I've never seen before
Just an ancient fading storyline from our old lovers lore
And it's a scene that's set so soon to be your acting stage
And I wish for luck to follow you in your unknown days
Shinin' on tomorrow
Blinding all your sorrows baby
So that when your winds blow
You will surely follow

And they will take you away
So your feet can learn to fly
Take you away
To the mysteries in the sky
I'll be okay, and I want you to be alright
Pay no mind when others ask you why
If they say,
'Who are you gonna be babe?
Who are you gonna be?
Who are you gonna be baby
With your sad shredded shoes
Your rogue roadside blues
That you sing so true
But no one's singing along with you

You said you're goin, goin, goin to Chicago
A vanished vision from my picture frame
That I loved long ago
And in the distant treetops humming down
I can still feel your sun
But by the time I turned my head around
Your light will be gone
Shinin' on tomorrow
Blinding all your sorrows baby
So that when your wind blows
You will surely follow

And they will take you away
So your feet can learn to fly
Take you away
To the mysteries in the sky
I'll be okay, and I want you to be alright
Pay no mind when others ask you why
If they say,
'Who are you gonna be babe?
Who are you gonna be?
Who are you gonna be baby
With your sad shredded shoes
Your rogue roadside blues
That you sing so true
But no one's singing along with you
