Illinois

Look out the window

Walk on the water

A royal wedding

A doctor’s daughter

The colder weather

Not what I’m use to

A brand new place that

I could come home to

Here I can act like myself

I don’t need anyone’s help

-

My first November

In Illinois

This city’s bigger

Than it was before

We shopped around some

While I was falling

With all the noise gone

You just kept calling

When I watched it end

And I started losing my friends

-

A dirty river

A different port

I take the L to

Another score

But it feels right here

It feels like you

That’s all I have to

Compare it to

So I live in this place

Until it sends me away
