Northbound and Down Lyrics

My heart lies heavy

On dreams and expectations
And every night that I'm away from you

I'm always going

You wait with so much patience

I count the days until I'm home with you

The horizon hides Chicago

Chorus

And summer brings the heat

The summer's all you need

And I won't let you down

I won't let you...

The autumn breeze blows cold

But girl I'm comin' home

And I won't let you down

I won't let you down

Oh, no

Verse 2 I've always heard that distances brings us closer
I don't feel close at all without you here

My stomach turns

It's love that makes me nervous

Each time it brings me closer to relief

I'm northbound toward Chicago

Repeat Chorus

Bridge

I've gotta know that you'll be mine

And I'm all you need

I know it's hard for you to say

But say you'll wait for me
Chorus (Picking)

And summer brings the heat

This song is all you need

And I won't let you down

I won't let you...

Final Chorus

And summer brings the heat

This song is all you need

And I won't let you down

I won't let you...

The autumn breeze blows cold

But girl I'm comin' home

And I won't let you down

I won't let you down

Oh, no
