Along Comes a WomanChicago

Songwriter: Mark Goldenberg Peter Cetera

Producer: David Foster

[Verse 1]
There is a time when a man needs someone to talk to
Someone to talk to, somebody who'll always be there
All alone, nothing seemed to matter
So alone, doesn't get much better
Can't explain something that you're feeling
For the very first time

[Verse 2]
There was a time when you needed someone to hold on to
Someone to hold you, somebody who's always sincere
All alone, suddenly you see her
So alone, you know you're gonna need her
Can't explain something that you're feeling
For the very first time

[Chorus]
Then along comes a woman
There's a change in the way that you're feeling tonight
Then along comes a woman
And you know that it's right

[Verse 3]
There was a time when you needed someone to count on
You needed someone to count on
Someone to care
Now she's here, nothing seems to matter
She's so near, everything is better
Can't explain, something that you're feeling
For the very first time

[Chorus][x2]

[Outro]
Then along comes a woman
There's a change in the way that you're feeling tonight
Then along comes a woman
And you know that it's right

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.
