Been a long time
A real long time
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
to kiss you
To never
leave her alone
She stands
on the sidewalk
just waving at taxis
Like horses
in parades
in passing
I ask where
she's headed
she tells me
Ohio
I've not seen
my mother in ages
It's been
a long time
A real long time
Real long time
It's been
a long time
A real long time
It's been
a long time
A real 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
to kiss you
To never
leave her alone
I've gotten
to know her
to live with
to love her
It's hard
to see her leave
She belong
to her mother
and the state
of Ohio
I wish she belonged
to me
It's been
a long time
A real long time
Real long time
It's been
a long time
A real long time
It's been
a long time
A real long time
A real long time
