Chicago Lyrics by The Bantams

Archbishop

2017

[Verse 1]
It was something out a dream
It was something never seen in my own life
You were something I don't know you were creeping rather slow
To the back of my mind
I fell asleep on a sofa I woke up and rolled over
Another morning gone
Dust to dust, fallen over, sycophants and four-leaf clovers
Need something everything's gone wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
I took a forty foot dive only lit by the high beams of a stationary car
Went on my phone for hours looking for nothing and oh I found nothing
She just feels frozen it's chosen in the afternoon and feeling like theres no time to start
Bored with not enough time
[Chorus]
I fell in love in Chicago just to make things right
And it's breaking my heart I'm not with you under neon lights
Out from the dark, two worlds apart
Let's go and finish what we start
The shadow of the city never looked so bright
[Verse 2]
Nothing in this world is free
Under the rock you hid the key to the back door
And in my mind there was a haze
And I've spent what felt like days lying on the floor
I fell asleep in my own bed I woke up then went to sleep again
Weeks and weeks have gone
Dust to dust, broken mirrors, under ladders, it got clearer
After years I realized I was wrong
[Chorus]
I fell in love in Chicago just to make things right
And it's breaking my heart I'm not with you under neon lights
Out from the dark, two worlds apart
Let's go and finish what we start
The shadow of the city never looked so bright
