Sean Watkins - Chicago Lyrics

Blowing trash in bitter wind, zip my sweatshirt to the top

Shoulders high and hands are hid in pockets not quite adequate

Sidewalk take me to the fire that will melt my frozen soul

Please don't let me stay this way, I'm so cold and all alone


Glass and steel cut through the wind a lake storm sent this way

Dividing up the avenues, I walk to give away the blues and take the day away


Walking quickly through the rain, I make no contact with my eyes

I weave through coats that hang on men, she is nowhere in my sight

People stand in corner crowds with eyes that point down to their wrists

Wishing they were warm inside, as they breathe into their fists


Glass and steel cut through the wind a lake storm sent this way

Dividing up the avenues, I walk to give away the blues and take away the day

I walk to give away the blues and take the day away
