Chicago (2008 Version)

Give him up Let him go Won't follow, won't let him follow Take a breath Steal away Let him play these games, play these games Can't cry Won't fight Not tonight, not turning off these lights Can't shout Can't scream He'll think I'm mean (But, I can let that be) Holding on Letting go Why do we do this? We don't know Stepping out Standing up Look below - I'm still hanging on though Swept away Off my feet Can't believe how I've been floating lately Sense a new avenue I know what to do (Just gotta let it take me) On a plane I'm leaving for Chicago Any place I go, you can't run Leaving town won't be found here tomorrow Telling stories, mine has just begun Taking over, leaving no traces Only smiling faces in the sun Starting over, tying up my laces But the damage is done Ride a wave The new rave Let it loose and now it's losing me Caught between Being me or a tragedy Riding high Cloud nine won't let me through their gates no more Found a place to escape I'm out the door (Leaving another girl sore) Won't be fine About time Need someone to hold back my hands Let me loose let me fall They'll understand, understand Hurting once Maybe twice They'll find you in a ditch somewhere Spreading wings Little things are (keeping you away from there) Chorus Shutting you out Shutting you out I'm shutting you out I'm gonna leave you behind One step at a time I'm gonna do it cause I said so I'm gonna make it cause I said so I'm shutting you out Chorus Outro
