"Illinois Again" lyrics

"Illinois Again"

50 to 80, ice on the road
4 wheel drive and an orange crane
Singing Eleanor in Illinois again
Sun on the water, hitting the glass
Bleach blonde boys in the white brick wall
I'm on the outside looking for the inside of it all

You said, don't go, get all in your head about it
Someone cut an angel in the snow
You said, don't go, get all in your head about it
Baby, that's the only place I know

Stop at the lake house, copper and gold
Ashtray dollar and a desert plane
Singing Eleanor in Illinois again
Eyes in the window, the city's a blur
I leave you high up on a sugar dream
It's nothing like we talked about
The lilac lights at Holocene

Don't go, get all in your head about it
Someone cut an angel in the snow
You said, don't go, get all in your head about it
But baby, that's the only place I know

50 to 80, wait for me
What did I miss, honey, who'd you see?
Singing Eleanor, oh is it all the same?
Sun on the water, hitting the glass
Right on time, we were second last
Singing Eleanor in Illinois again

Again
Again
Again

Well the dream just belongs to the dreamer
And the dreamer is lost to the dream
Yeah the dream just belongs to the dreamer
And the dreamer is lost to the dream
