Back to Chicago

I never went to Chicago
but I used to know
a woman that lived there
among the skyscrapers
and the parks,
she never told me this
but I think she loved Chicago;
she did tell me she loved me
but I think she mixed my
name up with Chicago
because when she visited me
she would only stay
for a few short weeks,
then she had to get
back to Chicago;
Tony Bennett says
he left his heart
in San Francisco,
I lost my heart
to a woman that
loves Chicago.
