Virginia, 1923 Lyrics by Kristoff Waltz

The Innocents EP

2016

[Verse 1]
Oh, Virginia
1923, but take it forward ­to the Second War
I’ve been fighting since you were born

[Verse 2]
I fixed eyelids
You sew them back together when they fall apart
Those soldiers of broken hearts

[Verse 3]
Sweet Ohio
Swimming ‘cross the sea until I get to shore
But the lawyer men loved you more
And it’s all in their hands

[Chorus 1]
Could you believe me?
Could I fix your eyes?
But you’re all I see!
Could I ever make you realize?
Sing me to sleep!
Thought I’d be a little taller by now...

[Verse 4]
You sent me flying
Now the sun sets slowly on our hiding sky
We’re grounded and old and wise

[Verse 5]
Fifty years gone!
But we’ll see them all again when our bodies fly
And you’ll be right by my side
‘Cause it’s all in our hands...

[Chorus 2]
Time moving slowly
And I need you more
They could never control me
I love you, Eleanor
Cause you're all I see
Could you love me like you loved them then?

[Coda]
You sent me some flowers blooming
Roses from our eyes in sunlight
Tricks to keep our bodies moving right...
