I Don’t Wanna Live Without Your LoveChicago

Songwriter: Ron Nevison

Producer: Ron Nevison

[Verse 1]
Thought it wouldn't matter
If we didn't stay together
And if it was over
Maybe it was for the better
I was thinking I'd be alright
Until I thought it all through
Now I know that I ain't really living
If I have to live without you

[Chorus]
I don't want to live without your love
I don't want to face the night alone
I could never make it through my life
If I had to make it on my own
I don't want to love nobody else
I don't want to find somebody new
I don't want to live without your love
I just want to live my life with you

[Verse 2]
Guess I had to go away
So much I had to go through
Guess I had to lose you
To realize how much I love you
Can we make the fire burn again
Burn a little stronger?
Because I've been alone and baby
I can't be alone now any longer

[Chorus]

[Verse 3]
Oh, if I had to make it on my own
My life would never be the same
My love would never be the same
I don't want to live without your love

[Chorus]

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.
