"Chicago" Lyrics [edit]
by Sufjan Stevens | from the album Illinoise
 

I fell in love again
All things go
All things go
Drove to Chicago
All things know
All things know
We sold our clothes to the state
I don't mind
I don't mind
I made a lot of mistakes in my mind
In my mind

You came to take us
All things go
All things go
To recreate us
All things grow
All things grow
We had our mindset
All things know
All things know
You had to find it
All things go
All things go

I drove to New York in the van with my friend
We slept in parking lots
I don't mind
I don't mind
I was in love with the place in my mind
In my mind
I made a lot of mistakes in my mind
In my mind

You came to take us
All things go
All things go
To recreate us
All things grow
All things grow
We had our mindset
All things know
All things know
You had to find it
All things go
All things go

If I was crying in the van with my friend
It was for freedom from myself and from the land
I made a lot of mistakes
I made a lot of mistakes
I made a lot of mistakes
I made a lot of mistakes

You came to take us
All things go
All things go
To recreate us
All things grow
All things grow
We had our mindset
All things know
All things know
You had to find it
All things go
All things go

You came to take us
All things go
All things go
To recreate us
All things grow
All things grow
We had our mindset
(I made a lot of mistakes)
All things know
All things know
(I made a lot of mistakes)
You had to find it
(I made a lot of mistakes)
All things go
All things go
(I made a lot of mistakes)
