The Pull Lyrics by Chicago

The Studio Albums 1979-2008

2008

[Verse 1: Jason Scheff]
Summertime came too soon
Summers in Kansas often do
And the air was still
I felt the pull

[Verse 2: Bill Champlin]
I recall the heat rising
From the ground in waves
And I knew I was
The first to pass this way

[Chorus: All]
I believe I stepped
Across some line
Or I stumble through
The doorway to space and time
Like a drunk
Who blacks out from the wine
Never remembers his name

[Verse 3: Jason Scheff]
I always feel so alone
Wherever I am
I feel the pull
And the life I've left
Behind the pull

[Verse 4: Bill Champlin]
And in case I have no future
I've got the past
There's no telling just
How long this play will last

[Chorus: All]
I believe I stepped
Across some line
Or I stumble through
The doorway to space and time
Like a drunk
Who blacks out from the wine
Never remembers his name
Never remembers

[Bridge: Jason Scheff, Bill Champlin]
I'm down, walking through a storm
I hear a voice inside, crying
It calls my name like a judge accusing
Black robe hanging down
Oh, don't forget be brave about your love

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 5: Jason Scheff with bandmates]
When I walk across
The monkey moon
Anger flashes in my eyes
I don't know what I'm doing
Like a drunk
Who blacks out from the wine
Never remembers his name

[Outro: All]
Like a drunk
Who blacks out from the wine
Never remembers his name
Never remembers his name
I never remember my name
