Ohio

70 West at 7 AM

On a winding road again

A cardinal singing me a goodbye song

Why does it feel like I am doing something wrong?

Out on the wind but I’ll get there soon

Outside Chicago by the afternoon

Stop to get a coffee 3 times a day

Why do I feel close to you and so far away?

Ohio, please forgive this boy for running

Blame the spell that I fell under

Called the California Sun

Ohio, please forgive this boy for leaving

Though you probably don’t believe me

But I regret the things I said when I was young

I can see the shimmer of the ocean blue

You gotta get real high to get this view

And I remember living on flat land

Craving peaks and valleys, she just couldn’t understand

Ohio, please forgive this boy for dreaming

Every man must search for meaning

For adventure and for fun

Ohio, can my exit be a lesson?

Cause now my tongue’s confessing

I regret the things I said when I was young

Is that such a crime?

Is it such a crime?

I fell in love with life

Is that such a crime?

I fell in love with life

I fell in love with life

Is that such a crime?

I fell in love with life

Is that such a crime?

Is that such a crime? I fell in love!
