歌词

Out from my window across from the city
I have what's considered a good view
Two blocks from the subway, three from the fountain
Where I walk to break in new shoes
She stands on the corner just waving at taxis
Like horses in parades in passing
I ask where she's headed she tells me,
"Ohio, I haven't been there in ages
It's been a long time, a real long time."
Out from my window "How far is Ohio?"
She laughed and pointed out east
She said, "I grew up there with my dear mother
And I haven't been there since thirteen.
You see, I was taken while she lay sleeping
By my father's hired man
We moved to a city so far from my mother
I haven't been back since.
It's been a long time, a real long time."
Out from my window please hear me Ohio
Your daughter wants to come home
She longs to be with you to hug you and to kiss you
And never leave you alone
And I've gotten to know her to love her
It's hard to see her leave
But she belongs to her mother and the state of Ohio
I wish she belonged to me
See you sometime, see you sometime
