dear illinois
I saw you there
hiding from the rain
then you disappeared
full fledged and remembered
chasing after the
red bird
of love
dear illinois
do you recall
finding my house
in your front yard
I laid you down
sweet summer long
full of angry hearts
and waterfront songs
full fledged and remembered
chasing after the
red bird
of love
we climbed through
the back of the car
anxious and caught inside
my heart
I looked at you
bright and perfumed
you ate me up
like the summer moon
dear illinois
I saw you there
playing guitar
then you disappeared
