Grayson Hugh - North Ohio Lyrics
I've returned to north OhioLeaves are fallingAnd the sky is greyI crossed that bridge on the Maumee RiverCome to see my grandmother's graveHigh on a hillThe rain is gently fallingIn the grassBy the stone that bears her her nameLife comes and goesAnd flickers like a candleStill the spirit of loveForever stays the sameTonight in my dreamsI go back to lingerIn a life not long agoThat I once knewTo a girl I lovedAnd rooms I rememberJust like a ghost who is lostI'm wandering throughMy heart is achingWith a thousand joys and sorrowsIn my sleepIn my dreamsI call her nameLife comes and goesAnd flickers like a candleStill the spirit of loveForever stays the sameTonight I felt the summer endingIn the darkness, ever softlyShe slipped on byDown in the fieldAt the four roads crossingI watched the flashingLast blue stars of the firefliesI stood there on the groundWhere my ancestors lay sleepingIn this landThey lived and lovedNow they dream in the rainLife comes and goesAnd flickers like a candleStill the spirit of loveForever stays the sameOh Lord, yes it doesForever stays the same
