Chicago Summer Nights
by Sahar RahimMemories of you and me
Haunting nights as I stay up late
Trying to figure out what was wrong
I cant pretend you didnt hurt me
Betrayal was your best friend
Time doesnt stop
But it helps with the pain
You move forward
I stay the same
Some day youre going to realize
I truly believe
It was always supposed to be me
Chicago summer nights
Staring at patterns in the sky
We were so young and so in love
What went wrong
What more could you be looking for
Fly ahead a couple years
Were still friends you still call me my dear
And though we say we want nothing more than memories
I hear you still want me
Chicago summer nights
Staring at the patterns in the sky
We were so young, so in love
What could have possibly gone wrong
What more could you be looking for
Im no longer that same girl
It took a while, for me to mend again
But when I said Id be fine
I wasnt lying
Ive met someone amazing
And all you can do is turn away
Youve finally realized what it meant to have me
Chicago summer nights
Staring at the patterns in the sky
We were so young and so in love
But time moves on
I moved on

| Posted by Nicole D Gregory on 03/10/08 at 10:01 PM This is an amazing piece! I felt your dance in the relationship - it has rhythm - it has heart - it has everything necessary to be a song... let me know what happens/happened. We haven't chatted for a while so I wish you all the best and since its cold here in Chicago... I wish you warmth, safety and love. Your friend, ~N |
