Illinois Lyrics

I bet you're beautiful

Probably bout five years old by now

I bet you got the best life your mom could give you

I know she must be proud

Her little miracle

What she'd been searching for all that time

But you had to go to somewhere it snows

To live your small town life

And i never no oh oh

What i'm holding onto

But i still wish it weren't this way so ill blow a candle out for you

Cause the Texas heat don't stay too long

Without your heart down here

I feel the sun come back around and it disappears

Well the rain comes down in April now

It mirrors every tear

Tell me how is Illinois this time of year

How is Illinois this time of year

How is Illinois this time of year

I can't go back in time

But if I could i swear i'd reverse it

I always question if it was worth it

So many nights this line i've rehearsed it

I had to go oh oh

But i'm still missing you

Don't like to face the facts cause it hurts so bad

Girl but you don't got no clue

Cause the choice i made just might be wrong

I don't know if you'll hear

I wasn't cut out for that route so i disappeared

I don't know what you're doing now but i'm reliving years

Never holding you now that's my biggest fear

Cause the Texas heat don't stay too long

Without your heart down here

I feel the sun come back around and it disappears

Well the rain comes down in April now

It mirrors every tear

Tell me how is Illinois this time of year

How is Illinois this time of year

How is Illinois this time of year
