The Singer and the Songwriter - Virginia
Field sparrow song says, "Go on, go on
What you waiting for go on"
The month of June a dandelion
Take the yellow hope in your mouth and swallow
Before it blows away
If this rain should continue
Ask me to stay here with you
In Virginia
Where the frogs are a chorus - cacophonous
And the wild garlic, fireflies at dusk
Try to tell us something
Saying, "see that light? Go towards it
It is goodness, goodness gracious me oh my"
Through the brush, through the bramble
Thorns remind me this is gonna hurt, just a little
Blackberries stain me
Write your questions on my hands dark and sweet
In Virginia
Wherе the frogs are a chorus - cacophonous
And the wild garlic, firеflies at dusk
Try to tell us something
Saying, "see that light? Go towards it
It is goodness, goodness gracious
Oh my goodness, Can you hear it?"
Hear the frogs by the ramps and the wild garlic
In Virginia, in Virginia
You're the one with the jar, I'm a firefly darlin'
In Virginia, in Virginia
Try to tell us something
See that light? Go towards it
It is goodness goodness gracious me oh my
