The moment that we met
There was something so familiar
I felt like I'd known you for a thousand years
And there inside your eyes
I saw a light that I'd been missing

Somewhere deep inside
All of the lonely disappeared
And, baby, now you're here
I feel like I have found

A long lost friend
That I've lived for all my life
A gentle hand
A part of me I've been trying to find
And now you're here
And the search comes to an end
I've found my long lost friend

Every move I make
Is to the rhythm of your heartbeat
Every single breath you take
You take with me

Oh, I ask myself
How did I ever live before you?
You came into my life
And put all the pieces into place
When I saw your face
I knew that I had found...

A long lost friend
That I've lived for all my life
A gentle hand
A part of me I've been trying to find
And now you're here
And the search comes to an end
I've found my long lost friend

Like a storm out of the blue
Love rained down on me and you
So complete and so unexpectedly
Like a movie in my mind
I've seen a hundred times
I feel like, I've loved you before...
Long Lost Friend

Now you're here
And the search comes to an end!

Long lost friend
That I've lived for all my life
A gentle hand
You're a part of me I was dying to find
And now you're here
And the search comes to an end...
I've found my long lost friend
I've found my long lost friend...

Oh, now I've found you
My lost friend... oh

Chicago

Chicago is a rock band hailing from the Illinois city of the same name. With its multitude of certified gold and platinum hits, the band has had enough longevity to last for over fifty years.

Chicago was formed on February 15, 1967, between keyboardist/singer Robert Lamm, trumpeter Lee Loughnane, saxophonist Walter Parazaider, drummer Danny Seraphine, guitarist Terry Kath, and trombonist James Pankow. The group called themselves “The Big Thing,” and played Top 40 hits in nightclubs in Chicago. In 1968, the band relocated to Los Angles, and changed their name to Chicago Transit Authority. They gained massive amounts of exposure to famous musicians of the time by regularly playing at the Whiskey A Go Go nightclub. In 1969, they released a self-titled album which peaked at No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 200 chart. The next year, the band shortened their name to “Chicago” to avoid a lawsuit from the actual company of the same name.

The band has released a plethora of albums, most of them titled Chicago enumerated with Roman numerals. The band changed its sound in the late 70s and 80s following the death of Terry Kath. Since then, the band has still carried on a legacy for the decades following, but has slowed the release of original music to a trickle.
