I see, I see a memory on the way
I see a kid that I know has my face
It's all a, it's all a memory on the breeze
It's in the things that you want me to say

My love lies beautiful
Especially when I leave
My love lies beautiful to me

With you, I'm alone, Chicago
With you, I'm alone
With you, I'm alone, Chicago
Chicago, my hometown
Chicago, my hometown

Just sail it on, sail it on, to say it ain't so
And sail it on, sail it on, to say it ain't so
Chicago

I see, I see a memory on the way
It's in the things that you want me to say
It's all a, it's all a memory on the breeze
It's in the way you make me want to smile

Your love looks beautiful
Especially when I leave
Your love looks beautiful to me

With you, I'm alone, Chicago
With you, I'm alone
With you, I'm alone, Chicago
Chicago, my hometown
Chicago, my hometown

Just sail it on, sail it on, to say it ain't so
And sail it on, sail it on, to say it ain't so
And sail it on, sail it on, to say it ain't so
Chicago
Chicago
Chicago
