Chicago
Vetusta Morla & Christina Rosenvinge Lyrics

I fell in love again,
I have fallen in love once more with someone, just as I have done so before.

all things go, all things go,
Everything eventually comes to an end, and fades away.

drove to Chicago,
I drove to the city of Chicago, which holds a special significance for me.

all things know, all things know,
Everything knows, and everything is aware of what will come to pass.

we sold our clothes to the state,
We sold our clothing to the government for the purpose of recycling them.

I don't mind, I don't mind,
I don't mind the fact that we sold our clothes, as it was for a good cause.

I made a lot of mistakes
I have made many errors in the past.

in my mind, in my mind.
These mistakes were made in my own thoughts and feelings, as opposed to tangible actions.

I drove to New York
I drove to the city of New York.

in the van with my friend.
I traveled in a van with a friend of mine.

We slept in parking lots,
We slept in parking lots, which were our only means of lodging at the time.

I was in love with the place
I fell in love with the city of New York, as it held a certain special meaning for me.

you came to take us,
You came to us, for the purpose of taking us somewhere else.

to recreate us,
In this new place, you aim to rebuild us, in a new and better way.

all things grow, all things grow,
Everything continues to evolve, slowly but surely.

we had our mindset,
We had our own beliefs and attitudes about life, and how we wanted to live it.

you had to find it,
You had to search for our mindset, and understand where we were coming from.

if I was crying
If I was crying at any point during this journey.

it was for freedom
It was due to my longing for freedom, from my own thoughts and emotions, as well as the land around me.

from myself and from the land.
I wanted to free myself from any attachment to the land or any obstacles that restricted me.

I made a lot of mistakes,
I have made many errors in the past.

you came to take us,
You came with the intention of taking us somewhere else.

to recreate us,
To rebuild and transform us into a better form of ourselves.

all things grow, all things grow,
Everything grows and evolves, even after it has been broken down and rebuilt.

we had our mindset,
We had our own set of beliefs and values that we held dear.

you had to find it,
You had to seek out and understand our state of mind and our way of thinking.

(I made a lot of mistakes)
I made a lot of mistakes along the way.

all things go, all things go.
Everything, good or bad, eventually fades away and comes to an end.
