St. Marys, on the ohio The power plants they glow They glow and they guide me home To eureka, such a winding road The backwater flows But it's full of chemicals And every time I return It's like I'm 9 years old I remember the old back porch And the stories that were told Memories, come to me when the rain drops Memories, oh oh oh Memories, I'd like to turn back the clock Memories, oh oh oh The green courts We'd play when it got dark In belmont's only park I found the beating of my heart At the train bridge, after midnight We'd wait for headlights Then we'd jump, jump As our youth took flight And every time I return It's like I'm 9 years old I remember the old back porch And the stories that were told Memories, come to me when the rain drops Memories, oh oh oh Memories, I'd like to turn back the clock Memories, oh oh oh
