I've never known you but I'm no stranger to this feelin'
I, I know it's over but the hurt's not
What do you call it when broken hearts are not done healin'
You throw down your cigarette but it's still hot
Well, I've learned a lot and here's what I've got
Well, didn't I think you would always love me
And didn't I want you to take care of me baby?
No, well that ain't happenin', no, no, no
Wouldn't I love just to rise above this
You gotta believe I have suffered enough to be free
So I'm officially leavin' just a kiss on the cheek and I'm gone
I'll be on the 7 o'clock, whoa, whoa
7 o'clock to Chicago, whoa, oh, oh
It's never easy breakin' this old addiction
I, I've got the reasons but no rationale
And I wanna hate you 'cause you don't give me no conviction
Your, your betrayal oughta make this break-down no trouble at all
So, so let the rubble fall 'cause I'm runnin' off, oh, no, no, now
Didn't I think you would always love me
And didn't I want you to take care of me baby?
No, well that ain't happenin', no, no, no, no, now
Wouldn't I love just to rise above this
You gotta believe I have suffered enough to be free
So I'm officially leavin' just a kiss on the cheek and I'm gone
I'll be on the 7 o'clock, whoa, whoa
7 o'clock to Chicago, whoa, oh yeah
I'll be on the 7 o'clock to Chicago
I ain't got no second thoughts
Because I know I'm on my way to the top
I'm on my way, hey, yeah
Well, didn't I think you would always love me
And didn't I want you to take care of me baby?
Well, that ain't happenin', no, no, no
Wouldn't I love just to rise above this
You gotta believe I have suffered enough to be free
So I'm officially leavin' just a kiss on the cheek and I'm gone
I'll be on the 7 o'clock, whoa, whoa, baby
7 o'clock to Chicago, Chicago
I will be on the 7 o'clock, whoa
7 o'clock to Chicago, whoa, oh yeah
Whoa, whoa, yeah
I, I know it's over but the hurt's not
