Track Insight / Lyrics
Concrete stairs in a deep hollow
Where the brassy rhythms follow
I am hovering by the glass
Watching all the velvet pass
Oh, give me just a little heat
Down on this Chicago street
Drawn to the glow of the door
I cannot take it anymore
You are leaning on the cold rail
With a face that looks thin and pale
I can see your cigarette glow
While the heavy bass notes blow
Silver sequins on a black dress
Everything is such a mess
I am circling in the air
Caught within a sudden glare
Oh, give me just a little heat
Down on this Chicago street
Drawn to the glow of the door
I cannot take it anymore
One wrong turn and I will burn
A lesson that I have to learn
Keep the distance, keep the pace
Looking for a warmer place
High heels clicking on the gray stone
Leaving me to wait alone
The piano plays a jagged chord
Something that I can afford
Oh, give me just a little heat
Down on this Chicago street
Drawn to the glow of the door
I cannot take it anymore
Pale wing, gold light.
Just a little heat.
Pale wing, gold light.
