center of a tension - the ohio song lyrics

[verse 1]
he’s from a letter she keeps folded in her back pocket
he’s from a painting of the moon
with no craters on it
he’s from an old abandoned shed
and she is from ohio

he grew up staring at the grass that grew up faster than he did
he grew up always placing last
they still say he’s just a kid
he still has gravel in his head
and she’s still in ohio

[chorus]
but if you
listen to the wind
you can hear them getting close
only time will tell
where their story’s gonna go
but when they cross paths

[verse 2]
she’s holding hands with smoky mountain tops and south pacific waves
she wears the rolling desert hills
late at night the day it rains
she is a sonnet set ablaze
and his eyes are turning gold
but she’s got this delicate stare
like royal wreaths in her eyes
but she’ll never back down from a dare
she’s always splitting someone’s sides
she’s filled with grace
she loves to paint the world much brighter than she’s told

[chorus]
listen to the wind
you can hear them getting close
only time will tell
where their story’s gonna go
but when they cross paths
the colorants and black power will explode

[bridge]
but i’m still waiting for the clouds to change into
the shapes of all the words i wanna say
’cause i’m still floating down the kentucky river
waiting for the breeze to carry me away
away

[chorus]
listen to the wind
you can hear them getting close
only time will ever tell
where their story’s gonna go
but when they cross paths
the colorants and black power will explode
(hey, hey, hey!)

[chorus 2]
listen to the wind
’cause i can hear you getting close
only time will ever tell
where this story’s gonna go
’cause i just want you
in the boring and exciting
mundane clouds and skies and lightning
in kentucky and ohio
and the sunrise and the fireworks that explode
