Rainy Windows (Bonnie Dobson)

Chicago seen through rainy windows
Always looks the same to me
Chicago buildings stretching upward
Not the place I wanna be
I ride the L-train 'round your city)
See the people hurry by
Chicago seen through rainy windows
Always makes me wanna cry

I remember when I was younger
I lived my life awhile with you
I had my good times, had my bad times
Had my share of loving too
But summer doesn't care much for you
Winter winds are more your style
Chicago seen through rainy windows
Never leaves me with a smile

Birds are flying, leaves are falling
Guess I should be on my way
Say goodbye to all my friends here
Bid farewell to yesterday
But still I'll often think about you
When the autumn winds do blow
Chicago seen through rainy windows
You know why I had to go
