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 be 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 But the lights of Cincinnati Will be callin' me back home
