Ontario Lyrics by Jon Bryant

What Takes You

2012

[Verse 1]
I heard the wind today tellin' me to go
I felt the train depart to take me from a coast
I watched my city sleep
Like a restless soul with nowhere else to go

Sorrows go on for years like the tears in widows eyes
Lessons all stay the same while the days give in to nights
I watched the oceans rise
And asked myself, "How can I leave this town?"

[Chorus]
I can feel those winds blow
So many roads in Ontario
Gotta breathe in real slow
Where will I go? God only knows
So far, so low, god only knows

[Verse 2]
Its crowding the empty streets and every champage glass
I lingering voice that speaks lest I repeat the past
I'm lookin' at empty streets
And I wonder if I'll make it out this time

I want you closer now in the messages I send
But I'm watching our candles burn depleting at the ends
And I'm lookin at everyone
Tellin' me no better time to run

[Chorus]
And I can feel those winds blow
So many roads in Ontario
Gotta breathe in real slow
Where will I go? God only knows
So far, so low, god only knows

[Bidge]
And if I go there is one thing you should know
This land is not my home
I'm leaving for my coast

[Chorus]
And I can feel those winds blow
So many roads in Ontario
Gotta breathe in real slow
Where will I go? God only knows
So far, so low, god only knows
Where will I go? God only knows
So far, so low, god only knows
God only knows, god only knows
God only knows, god only knows
God only knows, god only knows
God only knows, god only knows
