lyrics

Smoke fading out into the black
After the color and the flash
I lay down for a moment in the grass
and I wait around for the moment to pass.. forever

And I wanted to know your secrets
but I don't think I could ever know for certain
And if I have ever taken you for granted…

I'm sorry I missed you,
I guess that's all

The sun goes down on Surf St. -
A sad and simple song
I think I've finally learned something
Wandering around the Gold Coast, baby…

Oh my darling! I wanted to share my secrets
But I don't think I could ever bear to tell you
So I sing them out to the streets of Chicago
The city's burning me out again

I walked out to the lake
in the middle of the night

And we are all afraid,
So we turn on all the lights in the darkness

And this world is too big so we hide out
In our cities and pretend we're together
And now I watch these fireworks pass right over me
And I thought that they would last forever…

I'm sorry I missed you,
I guess that's all
