My heart lies heavy
On dreams and expectations
And every night that I'm away from you
I'm always going
You wait with so much patience
I count the days until I'm home with you
The horizon hides Chicago

(Chorus)

And summer brings the heat
The summer's all you need
And I won't let you down
I won't let you...
The autumn breeze blows cold
But girl I'm comin' home
And I won't let you down
I won't let you down
Oh, no

I've always heard that distances brings us closer
I don't feel close at all without you here
My stomach turns
It's love that makes me nervous
Each time it brings me closer to relief
I'm northbound toward Chicago

(Chorus)

I've gotta know that you'll be mine
And I'm all you need
I know it's hard for you to say
But say you'll wait for me

(Chorus)

And summer brings the heat
This song is all you need
And I won't let you down
I won't let you...

(Final Chorus)

And summer brings the heat
This song is all you need
And I won't let you down
I won't let you...
The autumn breeze blows cold
But girl I'm comin' home
And I won't let you down
I won't let you down
Oh, no
