(Chorus) 25 Or 6 To 4 - 1970 - Chicago Waiting for the break of day Searching for something to say Flashing lights against the sky Giving up, I close my eyes Sitting cross-legged on the floor Twenty five or 6 to 4 Staring blindly into space Getting up to splash my face Wanting just to stay awake Wondering how much I can take Should I try to do some more? Twenty five or 6 to 4, oh yeah! Feeling like I ought to sleep Spinning room is sinking deep Searching for something to say Waiting for the break of day, woo-oooh Twenty five or 6 to 4 Twenty five or 6 to 4, alright If you leave me now - 1976 - Chicago Their biggest hit worldwide, part of "Three Kings" with George Clooney If you leave me now, you'll take away the biggest part of me Ooohh no Baby please don't go And if you leave me now, you'll take away the very heart of me Ooohh no Baby please don't go Ooohh girl I just want you to stay A love like ours is love that's hard to find How could we let it slip away We've come too far to leave it all behind How could we end it all this way When tomorrow comes and we'll both regret The things we said today Hard to say I'm sorry - 1982 - Chicago probably their last big hit worldwide minimal horns mainly keyboards and guitars Everybody needs a little time away I heard her say from each other Even lovers need a holiday Far away from each other Hold me now It's hard for me to say I'm sorry I just want you to stay After all that we've been through I will make it up to you, I promise to And after all that's been said and done You're just the part of me I can't let go Couldn't stand to be kept away Just for the day from your body Wouldn't wanna be swept away Far away from the one that I love Hold me now It's hard for me to say I'm sorry I just want you to know Hold me now I really want to tell you I'm sorry I could never let you go After all that we've been through I will make it up to you, I promise to And after all that's been said and done You're just the part of me I can't let go After all that we've been through I will make it up to you, I promise to You're gonna be the lucky one
