Leaving Ohio: A Melodic Journey of Love, Loss, and Embracing Change
Lyrics
there's nothing left to say
Expressing a feeling of emptiness or exhaustion of words.
and nothing to do
Conveying a sense of helplessness or inactivity.
this house is lonely
Describing a sense of isolation within a house.
now i'm here without you
Reflecting on the loneliness after a separation.
so i sit and i wait for the sun
Waiting for a new day, possibly for a fresh start or change.
the streets are crowded
Observing a busy and populated urban environment.
and the lights are so bright
Highlighting the vibrant and lively atmosphere with bright lights.
another Cincinnati Saturday night
Referring to a typical Saturday night in Cincinnati.
and i hate what that has become
Expressing dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs.
and i've been thinking that i should go
Contemplating the idea of leaving the current situation.
cause if i don't leave now then i'm never gonna leave Ohio
Fearing the possibility of never leaving the state of Ohio.
lord
A moment of contemplation or plea to a higher power.
and that's a chance that i just can't take
Weighing the risk of not taking a chance to leave.
now that i'm getting older
Reflecting on the aging process and its implications.
i thought that we would set the city on fire
Recalling expectations of excitement and impact on the city.
but if we stick around we'll surely expire
Recognizing the potential decline if they stay in the current situation.
as our dreams slip right through our hands
Expressing the feeling of dreams slipping away.
lately i've been learning more about love
Learning about love from a caring individual.
from a precious heart that cares about us
Acknowledging the importance of a supportive person.
i think she belongs where i stand
Believing that the caring person belongs where they are.
and i've been thinking that i should go
Revisiting the idea of leaving the current situation.
cause if i don't leave now then i'm never gonna leave Ohio
Reiterating the fear of never leaving Ohio.
lord
A moment of contemplation or plea (repeated).
and that's a chance that i just can't take
Emphasizing the reluctance to take the risk of staying.
now that i'm getting older
Reflecting on the aging process and its impact (repeated).
and i've been thinking that we should go
Considering the idea of leaving collectively.
cause if we don't leave now then we're never gonna leave Ohio
Reiterating the fear of never leaving Ohio (collectively).
lord
A collective moment of contemplation or plea.
and that's a chance that we just can't take
Emphasizing the shared reluctance to take the risk.
now we're all getting older
Highlighting the universal aspect of aging.
