John Stirratt - Via Chicago lyrics

[Verse 1] I dreamed about k**ing you again last night And it felt alright to me Dying on the banks of Embarcadero skies I sat and watched you bleed Buried you alive in a fireworks display Raining down on me Your cold, hot blood ran away from me To the sea [Verse 2] I painted my name on the back of a leaf And I watched it float away The hope I had in a notebook full of white, dry pages Was all I tried to save But the wind blew me back via Chicago In the middle of the night And all without fight At the crush of veils and starlight [Bridge] I know I'll make it back One of these days and turn on your TV To watch a man with a face like mine Being chased down a busy street When he gets caught, I won't get up And I won't go to sleep [Hook] I'm coming home, I'm coming home Via Chicago [Verse 3] Where the cups are cracked and hooked Above the sink, they make me think Crumbling ladder tears don't fall They shine down your shoulders And crawling is screw faster lash I blow it with kisses I rest my head on a pillowy star And a cracked door moon That says I haven't gone too far [Hook] [Outro] Searching for a home Searching for a home Searching for a home Via Chicago I'm coming home I'm coming home
