Sleeping in the Middle of the BedChicago

Caught in a love storm
Howling like a newborn
Trying hard to stay warm
My cover up is
Torn up and tattered

Addiction to Apocalypse
Looking for the big hit
Tending to take trips
The ship of love is
Beat-up and battered

Time after time
I blow me away
Sign on the street now
Brother, let me pray now
Winter's here, I believe
It's here to stay

I read somewhere
That religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell
I was praying for a sign
Or a vision or a message
'Till you been there
You won't get well

I was sitting in a room
I never recognized it
With a picture before my eyes
I was sleeping in the middle
Of the bed again
I'm not sure this qualifies

Lost in a crosswalk
Battle only half fought
Crawling 'cause I can't talk
Childhood's finally
Caught up with me

Flashing like a neon
Noisy as an A-bomb
Looking to the beyond
Staring into the
Half-life of eternity

Time after time
I blow me away
Time on the street now
Brother, let me pray now
Winter's here, I believe
It's here to stay

I read somewhere
That religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell
I was praying for a sign
Or a vision or a message
'Till you been there
You won't get well

I was sitting in a room
I never recognized it
With a picture before my eyes
I was sleeping in the middle
Of the bed again
I'm not sure this qualifies

I read somewhere that religion
Is for people who swear
They need to be saved
I was sleeping in the middle
Of the bed again
You can trust me I will be brave

New York, New York
The Big Apple
New York, New York

New York, New York
16 million feet stepping on each other
New York is a state of mind

Time after time
I blow me away
Time on the street now
Brother, let me pray now
Winter's here, I believe
It's here to stay

I read somewhere
That religion is for people
Who want to stay out of hell
I was praying for a sign
Or a vision or a message
'Till you been there
You won't get well

I was sitting in a room
I never recognized it
With a picture before my eyes
I was sleeping in the middle
Of the bed again
I'm not sure this qualifies

I read somewhere that religion
Is for people who swear
They need to be saved
I was sleeping in the middle
Of the bed again
You can trust me I will be brave

I read somewhere that religion
Is for people who swear
They need to be saved
I was sleeping in the middle
Of the bed again
You can trust me I will be brave

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.
