Track Insight / Lyrics
When you slip through tunnels dark
In Chicago's heart you find a spark
Beneath the jazzclubs, basement deep
Where rhythms beat, and stories creep
Whispers echoing off stone bricks cold
Secrets carried on the nickel-steam old
Listen close, and you might hear
The whispers weaving worlds most clear
Down below in the city's core
Where the beat of a thousand hearts adore
In the shadows, magic makes its home
Where fantasies rise like a city of foam
Footsteps dance on the hollow floor
As the beat pulsates, and the bass roars more
Shadows stretch, and lights gleam bright
In the underground, where the city takes flight
Whispers echoing off stone bricks cold
Secrets carried on the nickel-steam old
Listen close, and you might hear
The whispers weaving worlds most clear
Down below in the city's core
Where the beat of a thousand hearts adore
In the shadows, magic makes its home
Where fantasies rise like a city of foam
Clock hands circle, the hours tick by
As the night wears on, the moonlight shy
Peeks through cracks in the cobblestone
As a dreamer weaves his own home
In the basement of the jazzclub's rear
A hidden world, where fantasies appear
And though the street above may seem
All concrete and steel, down here it dreams
In every shadow, a tale unfolds
Of endless possibilities, young and old
The city's heartbeat, a drumbeat drumming
As fantasies bloom, and the dreamer's humming
Down below in the city's core
Where the beat of a thousand hearts adore
In the shadows, magic makes its home
Where fantasies rise like a city of foam
So when the clock strikes and the day breaks through
And you're left wondering what fantasies flew
Just look down, and you'll see the signs
Of the magic hidden in the city's lines
