Girl, I know you’re in need of a hero
But the glory’s never called my name
I huddle at night
And shy from the light
As Chicago fades slowly away

And down here on the avenues
Where lover’s have waited for years
To come when you call
And put a hand out when you fall
From phone booths that are painted with tears

And is your heart blue?
Are you crying?
I’m lonely too
Is your heart blue?

Well you sang your song to the darkness
And the silence called back your name
Now that lonely song
Holds back the dawn
That could rise up and usher in your day

And I’ve been searching for you now
Thought I might find you downtown
In your broken bones
The money all gone
In your best faded evening gown

Is your heart blue?
Darling, don’t you worry
I’m right there with you
Is your heart blue?

I’ll be your flame in a cold November
Despite all the rain, you will remember our love…
