Hey sweetness, open your eyes
There’s the arch of the state line
Ohio seemed so far away
‘seems so far behind

Colors flying under gray skies
With a hand so cold inside mine
On a ride spinning around and around
At the carnival
At the carnival

So take me back to where I come from
A place I hardly can recall
Where we both know our names
And some things never change … at all

I stood outside in a field today
Alone, the rolling clouds began to play
A game in which each figure looked like you
Every single shape reminded me of you

So take me back to where I come from
A place I hardly can recall
Where we know who we are
A place that seems so far … away
