Lights of Cincinnati Lyrics
I remember still, I guess I always will;
That winters day I took the west bound flight.
As I looked down from the plane
You were standing in the rain.
You waved goodbye,
Till I was out of sight.
And I can see them shining
Through the Willows and the Pines:
The lights of Cincinatti
Oh, so many miles behind.
I could build myself a new life
And make it on my own.
But the lights of Cincinnati
Will keep calling me back home.
Sometimes late at night,
I watch the fire light make pictures
of a life that used to be.
For a moment I'm back there
In that same old rocking chair;
You look across the room
And smile at me.
And I can see them shining
Through the Willows and the Pines:
The lights of Cincinatti
Oh, so many miles behind.
I could build myself a new life
And make it on my own.
But the lights of Cincinnati
Will be calling me back home.
The lights of Cincinnati
Will be calling me back home.
That winters day I took the west bound flight.
As I looked down from the plane
You were standing in the rain.
You waved goodbye,
Till I was out of sight.
Through the Willows and the Pines:
The lights of Cincinatti
Oh, so many miles behind.
I could build myself a new life
And make it on my own.
But the lights of Cincinnati
Will keep calling me back home.
I watch the fire light make pictures
of a life that used to be.
For a moment I'm back there
In that same old rocking chair;
You look across the room
And smile at me.
Through the Willows and the Pines:
The lights of Cincinatti
Oh, so many miles behind.
I could build myself a new life
And make it on my own.
But the lights of Cincinnati
Will be calling me back home.
Will be calling me back home.
