lyrics

Eden Park on the hill
We took pictures of each other
Tour ‘96, we may split
No more laughing by the tape deck

Radio tower
Swinging on the art school green
Over the Rhine we follow your lead
To downtown fancy hats and iced tea

And the Indians were forced out of the city
We can never give back their stolen freedom

Cincinnati
You’ve got brotherhood
I wonder, was it just a dream?
Cincinnati
Changes come to mind when I walk through your streets
Cincinnati

A ball glove and Redleg stripes
I waited a long time to see the Ohio river shine
In Corryville we begged to play
I did ten pullups for Dan McCabe
For every year that I’m alive
I wish Timmy Taylor never died
His deep soul vision still hangs over Vine street
Twenty-eight years is nothing but one heart beat

Cincinnati
You’ve got brotherhood
I wonder, was it just a dream?
Cincinnati
Changes come to mind when I walk through your streets
Cincinnati

"Please Don't Say" is the tip of the spear for an album from the heart.
