You've been staying in Georgia
But you're stuck on my mind
I wish we didn't
Have to say goodbye
You know I'd be lying
If I said I'm fine
I hate the distance
And stupid time zones
And I know you've got
Your life out there
Meeting different people
And I know it's kinda selfish
But
I want you back in Chicago
As time's moved on
So have we
Wish we could go back
To how it used to be
Don't get me wrong
It's still nice to see
How you're doing
I just wish you could have stayed here with me
And I know you've got
Your life out there
Meeting different people
And I know it's kinda selfish
But
I want you back in Chicago
I like to think
About who we'd be
If you stayed here
And didn't leave
Would we still be friends?
Or barely speak?
At least I know that
For those years we were meant to be
And I know you've got
Your life out there
Meeting different people
And I know it's kinda selfish
But
I want you back in Chicago
I want you back in Chicago
I want you back in Chicago
I want you back in Chicago
I just want you back home
