diana jones - ohio lyrics

Loading...

across an ocean i have never seen
my love waits for me
her eyes are red, her heart is torn
from her journey over the sea

born to an irish no account
out in midwestern land
by rail and ship to ireland
for loving a protestant man

there are no waves in ohio
there are no ships to sail
but i’ll be coming there for you my love
my love

i’ve pledged to you with all my heart
in the meadow on the hill
and kissed you on the day we parted
the words you spoke are truer still

my father wants to marry me to one he has arranged
but i’ll sleep beneath the water deep
if i cannot bear your name

there are no waves in ohio
there are no ships to sail
but i’ll be coming there for you my love
my love
sold my tools, i sold my land
my father’s watch is all i have
and booked my passaged straight away
my mother’s ring inside my hand

i’ll bid farewell to all i’ve known
and in the early light
by rail and ship to ireland
to claim you for my bride

there are no waves in ohio
there are no ships to sail
but i’ll be coming there for you my love
my love

arrived in dublin in the morning
and met a girl i did not know
she said you loved me than all the world
and sorry to tell this sad news so

late one night out on the deck
the wind it howled and bent
you dared the sea to swallow you
and take your pain away

there are no waves in ohio
there are no ships to sail
but i’ll be coming there for you my love
my love
i’ll throw rose petals overboard
on the ocean of my dreams
you’ll be waiting there for me my love
my love
my love
