Well, you met her there on a New York City stair
You were throwing up on your shoes
Tryin' to write the great book when it really had you shook
With a bad case of wintertime blues

So you drag her down to the ragged side of town
She had a taxi to carry her home
Then she left her handkerchief there beside you on the seat
As if to emphasize that you were all alone

It smelled like springtime and you were just a boy
And all the lilacs in Ohio
All the lilacs in Ohio. There ya go.
In the city streets and the dirty winter snow

All the lilacs in Ohio - hio.
Well, she's the love story you speak of
When you talk to Sam at the bar
But it's in the details your story often fails

Yeah, close, but no cigar
And you might see your own ass in a double whiskey glass
But you'll never erase her smile
And you'll never write it down, never find her in this town

Of phantom dreams and fingernail files
It was springtime, and you were just a boy
And all the lilacs in Ohio
All the lilacs in Ohio. There ya go

In city streets and the dirty winter snow
All the lilacs in Ohio - hio
So you pin her handkerchief to your clean white linen sheets
And you unmake your bed, crawl in

You imagine her there and you're tangled in her hair
And she smells like flowers again
And it's springtime, and you were just a boy
All the lilacs in Ohio

All the lilacs in Ohio. There ya go
In the city streets and the dirty winter snow
All the lilacs in Ohio - hio

  All The Lilacs In Ohio
    Well, you met her there on a New York City stair You
were throwing up on your shoes Tryin' to write the great book when ....


  Come Home To You
    There's a mad little kid at the top of the stair And
his eyes, they gather no lie Well, his mom and his dad, they're ....


  Everybody Went Low
    Well the prize was right there underneath our eyeballs And when it
all came down we were looking for the pitfalls Until Junie said baby ....


  Farther Stars
    Friends of mine they don't hear Clocks ticking all around their ears
They don't expect a thing Bridges moving while the river sings CHORUS: Long ....


  Hangin' Round Here
    If I could go back to love's first blush Oh my lordy
it would be a big rush But I know you can't go back ....


  I Know A Place
    I know a place Where the dogs ain't barking I know a
place Where the sun don't shine I know a place Where the gosts ....


  I'll Never Get Over You
    I would have thought time would erase I'll never get over you
The feeling's lost in your embrace I'll never get over you But still ....


  My Old Friend
    I thought we were gonna make that bridge, what did I know
Me and my expectations was always high Like a Rolling Stone is playing ....


  Rock Of Your Love
    It ain't like I'm so tough You shook me to the heart
You shook me sure enough Turned my whole world upside down I tried ....


  Something Broken
    There's something broken in my heart Oh it was nothing you done
There's something broken in my heart I guess that's just the way it ....


  The Tiki Bar Is Open
    CHORUS: Thank God the tiki bar is open Thank God the tiki
torch still shines Thank God the tiki bar is open Come on in ....
