It doesn't seem like long ago
You were here, we were all alone
Hand in hand where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
So much in love, so many dreams
We were so young and so carefree
Arm in arm where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
It was in spring, the world was new
I only live for only you
I lost my heart where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
-Instrumental-
We fell in love where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
But then the spring turned into fall
We never dreamed, we'd lose it all
Love washed away where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
Down by the banks of the Ohio
We fell in love, then let it go
Just like the place where the waters flow
Down by the banks of the Ohio
Down by the banks of the Ohio
Down by the banks of the Ohio...
