[Verse 1] Chicago was windy and wild, Semi trucks crowding every mile. Skyscrapers fading in the rearview glass, Chasing the sun as the farmlands pass. [Verse 2] Kamikaze birds blazing by, Cutting sharp lines through a steel-gray sky. Feathers like fire against morning haze, Wings like prayers through endless days. [Pre-Chorus] Every mile’s a memory’s thread, And I still feel you in my head… [Chorus] Wind in my hair, hope in my chest, Road signs pointing through the Midwest. Clouds unfolding like a lullaby, On this long stretch under a wide, wide sky. Each day gone by, my heart aches more— Your silhouette waiting at the door. [Verse 3] Ohio’s whispers come soft and slow, Tales from cornfields and the radio. Small towns blink like distant stars, Dreams tucked quiet in rusted cars. [Verse 4] Coffee’s gone cold on the dash again, Counting the states like old lost friends. Writing your name in the window mist, A thousand miles from your kiss. [Pre-Chorus] Every song on the dial feels like you, And I lean in just to make it through… [Chorus] Wind in my hair, hope in my chest, The ache keeps time inside my vest. Clouds unfolding like a lullaby, On this long stretch under a wide, wide sky. Each day gone by, I miss you more— It’s not just distance, it’s the core. [Bridge – Slowed, Spacious] Maybe I’ll sleep near the edge of the moon, Where the stars hum low and time ends soon. You in my mind, your voice in the hum, I’m counting the hours ‘til I come. [Final Chorus – Layered Vocals] Wind in my hair, your name on my tongue, The road is long, but my heart’s still young. Clouds unfolding like a lullaby, On this long stretch under a wide, wide sky. Each day gone by, your face is near— I’m chasing home, I’m almost here. [Outro – Gentle Fade] Kamikaze birds, keep flying on, Lead me back where I belong. Wild wind, wide sky… Sing me home.
