In the million words we did not speak

Something in the silence slowly engulfes me

It was a time, a place, a face I can't forget

I keep a picture of you in the back of my head



CHORUS:

Once upon a time, just ten thousand miles ago

Wonder what I could have found

If I went to Chicago

In much too deep to ever know

What I might have found

If I went to Chicago



I could fly right up and through your skies

But there's somewhere else my faith lies

So the story's all that ever could have been

That's where this movie starts and where it ends



-CHORUS-



I could write you back

And send a part of me

Cause you're the closet thing to perfection

That I've ever seen



Once upon a time, ten thousand miles ago

Wonder what I could have found

If I went to Chicago

In much too deep to ever know

What I might have found

If I went to Chicago



(Repeat Chorus 2x)



Ooh yeah

To Chicago

Ooh yeah to Chicago

Ooh yeah to Chicago

Ooh yeah yeah Chicago
