 Chicago V » The lyrics [+ Add +] |
1. _ Goodbye
Flying high, touch the sky
Going to places i never knew
So goodbye
And hello, long ago
I can see history
Standing still, a mystery
If you will pardon me
I'm away for the day
Feels so good to be soaring
'cause la was so boring
Goodbye
There must be room for growing
Somewhere else and i'm going
Goodbye
The days and nights have gone dry
The last three whole years have flashed by

2. _ While The City Sleeps
While the city sleeps
Men are scheming
New ways to kill us
And tell us dirty lies
While the city sleeps
Earth is crumbling
Everyone talking
And doing not a thing
While the city sleeps
Men are dreaming
A world enlightened
Beyond this darkest age

3. _ Alma Mater
Looking back a few short years
When we made our plans and played the cards
The way they fell
Clinging to our confidence
We stood on the threshold of the goal
That we knew, dear
And though we had our fights
Had our short tempered nights
It couldn't pull our dreams apart
All our needs and all our wants
Drawn together in our heart
We felt it from the very start
It's all happened recently
Now we're living in that dream
We had not long ago
Everything is going fine
And now we just have to keep in mind
We must set brand new goals
We must not lose control
Of the possiblity of the discovery
That would let everybody see
That we were just meant to be

4. _ Dialogue
Part i
Are you optimistic 'bout the way things are going?
No, i never ever think of it at all
Don't you ever worry
When you see what's going down?
No, i try to mind my business, that is, no business at all
When it's time to function as a feeling human being
Will your bachelor of arts help you get by?
I hope to study further, a few more years or so
I also hope to keep a steady high
Will you try to change things
Use the power that you have, the power of a million new ideas?
What is this power you speak of and this need for things to change?
I always thought that everything was fine
Don't you feel repression just closing in around?
No, the campus here is very, very free
Don't it make you angry the way war is dragging on?
Well, i hope the president knows what he's into, i don't know
Don't you ever see the starvation in the city where you live
All the needless hunger all the needless pain?
I haven't been there lately, the country is so fine
But my neighbors don't seem hungry 'cause they haven't got the time
Thank you for the talk, you know you really eased my mind
I was troubled by the shapes of things to come
Well, if you had my outlook your feelings would be numb
You'd always think that everything was fine
Part ii
We can make it happen
We can change the world now
We can save the children
We can make it better
We can make it happen
We can save the children
We can make it happen

5. _ All Is Well
All is well again
I think i'm gonna be alright
And i'm feeling better
Again
Loving you was sad
Affairs of timing that were bad
And the laughing ended
Again
There was a time
When i thought i was fooling myself
But now, i'll take a bow
'cause i'm free and easy

6. _ State Of The Union
I was talking 'bout the state of the union
How there's no one now in power thinking of me
I was saying how we ought to try to fix it
Find a leader who is not afraid to be
Then a voice came out of the darkness
Saying "tear the system down"
Tear it down
I was thinking 'bout how that was very crazy
And i tried to find a way to tell him so
But when i did i used a word that was quite nasty
How the policeman heard me man i'll never know
Then a voice came out of the darkness
Saying "tear the system down"
Tear it down; down to the ground
I was wrestled of to one side of the theater
And they said i'd have to go right to jail
They don't permit coarse language in their city
But they did accept a large amount of bail
Then a voice came out of the darkness
Saying "tear the system down"
Tear it down; down to the ground

7. _ A Hit By Varese
Please won't you sing me
A thing that will bring me right into the sky
If you would play it
Just lay it down, say, it will help me get by
Something to move me
Remove me and grove me, you want to know why?
I'm so tired of oldies
And moldies and goldies, that i want to cry
Can you play free
Or in three or agree to attempt something new
The people need you
A seed that will lead to a hit by varese

8. _ Now That You've Gone
Take a closer look inside yourself
You may see the love i left behind
Days were fast but full of life
We laughed at everything
Now you've gone time is standing still
I don't do anything i'm so alone
So lonely
Still i can recall
The happy times
Laughing arm and arm
So alive
Was it years ago
Or just a day
When you turned to me
Said goodbye
Now you've gone away
I don't know why
Did you have to lie
Walk away
How can i go on
In emptiness
Feeling so alone
Every day

9. _ Saturday In The Park
Saturday in the park
I think it was the fourth of july
Saturday in the park
I think it was the fourth of july
People dancing, people laughing
A man selling ice cream
Singing italian songs
(fake italian lyric)
Can you dig it (yes, i can)
And i've been waiting such a long time
For saturday
Saturday in the park
You'd think it was the fourth of july
Saturday in the park
You'd think it was the fourth of july
People talking, really smiling
A man playing guitar
Singing for us all
Will you help him change the world
Can you dig it (yes, i can)
And i've been waiting such a long time
For today
Slow motion riders fly the colors of the day
A bronze man still can tell stories his own way
Listen children all is not lost
All is not lost
Funny days in the park
Every day's the fourth of july
Funny days in the park
Every day's the fourth of july
People reaching, people touching
A real celebration
Waiting for us all
If we want it, really want it
Can you dig it (yes, i can)
And i've been waiting such a long time
For the day
