Chicago (2020 Version)

It's done, it's done, it's done, it's done
It's done, it's done, it's done, it's done
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
(We're turning off these lights)
Can't shout, can't scream
He'll think I'm mean
(But I can't 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
Since 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
Leavin' town
Won't be found here tomorrow
Tellin' stories, mine has just begun
Takin' over, leaving no traces
Only smilin' faces in the sun
Starting over, tying up my laces
But the damage is done
(Is done, is done, is done)
Ride a wave, the new rave
Let it loose and now it's losin' me
Caught between being me
Oh tragedy, tragedy
Ridin' high, cloud nine
Won't let me through
Their gates no more
Found a place to escape
I'm out the door
(Leavin' another girl sore)
I 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 me)
On a plane, I'm leaving for Chicago
Any place I go you can't run
Leavin' town
Won't be found here tomorrow
Tellin' stories, mine has just begun
Taking over, leaving no traces
Only smilin' faces in the sun
Starting over, tying up my laces
But the damage is done
(Is done, is done, is done)
But the damage is done
(Is done, is done, is done)
But the damage is done
(Is done, is done, is done)
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 shutting you out
(Is done, is done, is done)
I'm going to leave you behind
(Is done, is done, is done)
One step at a time
(Is done, is done, is done)
I'm gonna do it cause I said so
(Is done, is done, is done)
But the damage is done
On a plane, I'm leavin' for Chicago
Any place I go you can't run
Leavin' town
Won't be found here tomorrow
Tellin' stories, mine has just begun
Taking over, leaving no traces
Only smilin' faces in the sun
Starting over, tying up my laces
But the damage is done
(Is done, is done, is done)
But the damage is done
(Is done, is done, is done)
But the damage is done
(Is done, is done, is done)
But the damage is done
(Is done, is done, is done)
But the damage is done
