Sweet Ohio I am coming home!

Living in Virginia has been great, and there are many wonderful people here that I'm really I'm going to miss, but right now, this song by a relatively obscure band (who I heard when we both played at a festival at Camp Luther overlooking Lake Erie) is really articulating how I feel as I get ready to move back to OHIO!

Listen to it:

Lyrics for "Ohio" by IDENTITY (from the album "Hope and a Future"):

Well I’m moving to Ohio

To the state I call my home

‘Cause folks back there,

They really care about you

Been all across this nation

From the east coast to the west

And I’m convinced Ohio is the best

Well there ain’t point no trying

To keep me here no more

Cause I feel great

Buckeye state is calling

Hurry road and get me to the place I love to roam

Sweet Ohio I am coming home!

I miss the rolling hillsides

The winding southern plains

I miss the northern coastline of Lake Erie

You may think I’m crazy

But you will never know

And I don’t care

I love it there

And I am going home!

I miss the rolling hillsides

The winding southern plains

I miss the northern coastline of Lake Erie *

You may think I’m crazy

But you will never know

And I don’t care -- I love it there!

And I am going home!

Hurry road and get me to the place I love to roam

Sweet Ohio I am coming home!

I said my sweet Ohio I am coming home!

* I typed it how I hear it, but I think that this line should be "the northern coastline on Lake Erie", as the northern coastline of Lake Erie would be the Canadian shore, eh?
