Tori Amos - Virginia текст песни

In the lush virginia hills

They kept her as long as they could

Cause they knew when the white brother found

White shell beads wrapped around her

Skin - a life giving river - her body open

As will his hand

And with a goodbye there she goes

She may betray

All that she loves

And even wait for

Their savior to come

And in some things,

Maybe hell be right

But as always

The thing that he loves

He will change from her

Sunwise to clockwise

To soul trading

Still shell lay down her body

Covering him all the same

So hundreds of years go by

(the red road carved up by sharp knife)

Shes a girl out working her trade

And she loses a little each day

To ghetto pimps and presidents

Who try and arouse her turquoise serpents

She cant recall what they represent

And when you ask, she wont know

She will betray

All that she loves

And even wait for

Their savior to come

And in some things,

Maybe hell be right

But as always

The thing that he loves

He will change from her

Sunwise to clockwise

To soul trading

Still shell lay down her body

Covering him all the same

Oh virginia do you remember

When the land held your hand

Oh virginia she will let you back in

Oh virginia you cant remember your name
