When darkness overtakes the sky
and my family has said goodbye
I stare out the foggy window
at the city covered in snow

Couples walk hand in hand
hear the sound of a local band
friends stumble home
carrying tall glasses topped with foam

And I think of all the lovers lost
mistakes of my past-I've paid the cost
just how alone am I?
like the moon in the ebony sky

The answer to my question
lies in the windy city
