So Long Chicago

lyrics

So long Chicago, I'm gonna live my life like there's no tomorrow
Raise your glasses high, here's to a life with a bright future without you

Broken promises,
A shattered heart and the lies that you said
About how you felt.
I guess love is just a word.

A pounding in my head.
An explanation that you left unsaid.
I sit with open ears,
but I guess it stays unheard.

Excuses are a dime a dozen
And you're the cheapest whore I know
I hate that I've got to leave,
But I love that you've got to watch me go

So long Chicago, I'm gonna live my life like there's no tomorrow
Raise your glasses high, here's to a life with a bright future without you
So long Chicago, could never quite decide to buy or borrow
Remember the nights when your city lights would keep me from starting a new

Now I'm moving on,
Don't call my name, girl, cuz now I'm long gone.
You missed the L,
Cuz I'm the best that you'll ever have

Excuses are a dime a dozen
And you're the cheapest whore I know
I hate that I've got to leave,
But I love that you've got to watch me go

So long Chicago, I'm gonna live my life like there's no tomorrow
Raise your glasses high, here's to a life with a bright future without you
So long Chicago, could never quite decide to buy or borrow
Remember the nights when your city lights would keep me from starting a new
