Earthquakes and hurricanes And slow movin' freight trains Girl, that's how You make me feel sometimes But you were gone away from here So far, my dear Up by that Northern state line Virginia Light up my broken dreams You pick me up And sure make me smile Virginia And I would give anything To come dance around My memory for awhile ♪ Off in the moonlight A sweet Southern moonlight A billion stars Bare feet in the sand I'm countin' down the summer days Smiling at our reckless ways You was my girl And I was your man Virginia Light up my broken dreams You pick me up And sure make me smile Virginia And I would give anything To come dance around My memory for awhile ♪ That's the way the story goes Of broken hearts and sad souls You left me here Not saying goodbye Said you headed with your Paw North Arkansas But that was back before 1975 Virginia Light up my broken dreams You pick me up And sure make me smile Virginia And I would give anything To come dance around My memory for awhile
