Songtext zu 'Ontario' von Jon Bryant

I heard the wind today tellin' me to go
I felt the train depart to take me from a coast
I watched my city sleep
Like a restless soul with nowhere else to go

Sorrows go on for years like the tears in widow's eyes
Lessons all stay the same while the days give in to nights
I watched the ocean's rise
And asked myself: How can I leave this town?

I can feel those winds blow
So many roads in Ontario
Gotta breathe in real slow
Where will I go? God only knows
So far, so low, God only knows

It's crowding the empty streets and every champagne glass
I'm lingering voice that speaks lest I repeat the past
I'm lookin' at empty streets
And I wonder if I'll make it out this time

I want you closer now in the messages I send
But I'm watching our candles burn depleting at the ends
And I'm lookin' at everyone
Tellin' me no better time to run

And I can feel those winds blow
So many roads in Ontario
Gotta breathe in real slow
Where will I go? God only knows
So far, so low, God only knows

And if I go there is one thing you should know
This land is not my home
I'm leaving for the coast

And I can feel those winds blow
So many roads in Ontario
Gotta breathe in real slow
Where will I go? God only knows
So far, so low, God only knows
Where will I go? God only knows
So far, so low, God only knows
God only knows, God only knows
God only knows, God only knows
God only knows, God only knows
God only knows, God only knows
