Testi

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 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
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 seen her since thirteen
You see, I was taken while she lay sleeping
By my father's hired men
We moved to the city so far from our family
I haven't been back there since"
"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
And I've gotten to know her, to live with, to love her
It's hard to see her leave
She belongs to her mother and the state of Ohio
I wish she belonged to me
See you sometime, see you sometime
See you sometime
