Oh, the wind, it bites my cheek
As I walk Chicago streets
Across these broad shoulders
Which flex and turn me over
Into the arms of the Midwest Sea
Who stands and stares back at me Love built a city
Love built a city
As I hold your hand
I can feel the Builder’s plan
Etched into this open plane
Where our love first interchanged
Our hopes, our fears, our cloesest thoughts
Which grew closer with every touch
Love built a city
Love built a city
From the burnt remains
Of apartments and factories
Our love grew up to the sky
Magnificent miles wide
So I’ll run into your arms
Carried by the Ocean’s song
Love built a city
Love built a city
