lyrics

My love cannot be confined
Like the ocean that defines
The very distance between us
But my words, will never be enough
To keep you warm at night
Good thing you’re from Australia

I hope you know, I’ve held you close
To my heart, while we’ve been apart
But I’m destitute without my muse
I’m out of things to do

In Chicago
Watching snow turn in to dust amongst the sorrow
Another day without you babe and yet tomorrow
I’ll be here and you’ll be there
Unaware my heart is hollow
All I need is over seas, and I’m in Chicago

My heart cannot be contained
Not by prison or chains
That bound our ancestors together

So will you take all I have to give?
I don’t need much to live
As long as we have each other

I hope you know, I’ve held you close
To my heart, while we’ve been apart
But I’m destitute without my muse
I’m out of things to do

In Chicago
Watching snow turn in to dust amongst the sorrow
Another day without you babe and yet tomorrow
I’ll be here and you’ll be there
Unaware my heart is hollow
All I need is over seas, and I’m in Chicago

Where did you come from? I can’t believe the way you make me feel alive every single day
But what would you say
If I told you I was scared to fall in love so far away
So far away from you

In Chicago
Watching snow turn in to dust amongst the sorrow
Another day without you babe and yet tomorrow
I’ll be here and you’ll be there
Unaware my heart is hollow
