Back to Chicago

[Verse 1]
I was waiting all alone last night
When they canceled all remaining flights
And I was suddenly aware I was being so unfair
To turn and run from you again
So I called you on the telephone
And I said, "Hey girl I'm coming home
'Cause I know my words were cruel
And that I acted like a fool
But I'm gonna make it all up to you"

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't care what people say
'Cause I'm gonna love you night and day
Oh baby, if you still want me
Still need me, all you got to do is let me
Walk right up to your door

[Chorus]
I'm making my way back to Chicago
I'm making my way, come rain or shine
I'm gonna find true love waiting for me
I'm gonna make it all work out for good this time

[Verse 2]
Let's go walking by the beach tonight
And watch the sun come up on Lake Shore Drive
And then I'll take you in my arms and I'll keep you from all harm
'Cause I know everything is gonna be alright

[Pre-Chorus]
And I don't care what people say
'Cause I'm gonna love you night and day
Baby if you still want me
Still need me, all you got to do is let me
Just walk right up to your door

[Chorus]
I'm making my way back to Chicago
I'm making my way, come rain or shine
I'm gonna find true love waiting for me
I'm gonna make it all work out for good this time

[Chorus]
I'm making my way back to Chicago
I'm making my way, come rain or shine
I'm gonna find true love waiting for me
I'm gonna make it all work out for good
Know it's understood
I'm coming home to stay this time

[Outro]
Oh baby
I'm coming home to stay
Baby take me in your arms, your arms
Come on, come on
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
