Was up for two nights straight and was inspired by Ingram Hill's song "Chicago". . I've only been once, but it was as close to home as I'll ever be. R&R please.

"Chicago is calling my name
With those dim city lights
And smoke fill streets,
It tells of the future it could hold for me
Skyscrapers welcoming with open arms
And the rain,
Soft and cold, yet it's
Exactly
What I need.
It sings me to sleep, this silly lullaby,
'Habit will make you love me'
And the pictures are so clear as they swim inside my head
Of the loft, love lost
Memories beckoning in wordless pleas,
But those metropolitan windows weep
Because they know why my heart
Won't
Let me return to that sacred place:
My Chicago."
