lyrics
set my mind onto bluer skies
far away from these city lights
red carnations and a field of gold
beside the green, green grass of home
summer turned to autumn
so your golden hair has turned to brown
try loosening your grip
if you intend on holding on to what you found
swing low, sweet ohio
i will see you in my dreams
i don't mind if this road is long
so long as it leads me home eventually
oh my love you've been a long time gone
gone away from where you first come from
follow the lines in this ancient map
they'll take you back to where you once belonged
counted up our blessings
hoping they'd add up to something more
we mined these hills for more than gold
but we never found what we were looking for
swing low, sweet ohio
i will see you in my dreams
i don't mind if this road is long
so long as it leads me home eventually
