Nye Hughes - My Last Day in Chicago Lyrics

It's one of those times, I want to hideaway
Everybody's talking at me and I can't get no headspace
I look down at my feet, on Michigan Avenue
Waiting for the ground to swallow me whole, open my eyes and now I'm back at home

I... I've been waiting here for an hour or more, she hasn't stood me up like this before
Now I know... what happened here is in my soul, thank the Lord it's my last day
In Chicago
Oh, Chicago

So I make my escape. And it's the coward's way out
These streets were good to me, but I can't stay here any longer
I wish I was in the shadow of the 875 North
It towers over me, makes my problems seem so small

I... I've been waiting here for an hour or more, she hasn't stood me up like this before
Now I know... what happened here is in my soul, thank the Lord it's my last day
In Chicago
Oh, Chicago. I just can't leave you. Maybe it will take a little time
But I think every single thing bound to be alright

I... I've been waiting here for an hour or more, she hasn't stood me up like this before
Now I know what happened here is in my soul, thank the Lord (thank the Lord)
It's my last day (It's my last day)
Oh thank the Lord it's my last day
