Goodnight, Illinois
Wish I could stay
A lonesome star in the Western sky
Wished upon fades away
Tonight I make my way home
Goodnight, Illinois
I leave with you a dream
There on your front porch
‘Neath the moonlight and silhouetted trees
Hand in hand face to face
And if I’m wrong
I’ll be wrong one more time
And dream of you, Illinois, goodnight
Goodnight, Illinois
Although the road
We choose to walk down
Is not the only one there is to know
So many times I’ve been told
But if that’s wrong
We’ll be wrong one more time
And I’ll dream with you, Illinois, goodnight
So many ways I’ve been wrong
So if I’m wrong
Then I’ll be wrong one last time
And I’ll dream of you, Illinois, goodnight
