It's always Virginia ground I see
It's always your voice that's calling out to me
"Won't you come on home?"
We used to be
Always together, you and I
You with the lushest leaves and clearest sky
That I've ever seen in my life
Forests of green and gleaming twilights
Now that you're just a dream in my life

CHORUS:
I'm out here alone
You know, I don't mind it
And though this concrete city has become my home, my way unknown
I will find it
And in my mind you're always with me...
Goodbye, Virginia, goodbye

Out where the Blue Ridge meets the sky
Oh Shenandoah, how you filled my eyes
With a thousand blazing sunsets
Just us and the stars out on the front steps
Dreaming of all the nights to come yet...

CHORUS

Looking out through my small barred window
I know this dirty city gives me freedom like I've never known
I traded you for the dreams I follow
And I can't go back --
Goodbye, Virginia, goodbye
We were together, you and I
You with the lushest leaves and clearest sky
That I've ever seen in my life
Forests of green and gleaming twilights
Now that you're just a dream in my life...

CHORUS
