Virginia (2023 Remaster) - Tori Amos

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 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 he'll be right

But as always the thing that he loves

He will change from her sunrise to clockwise to soul trading

Still she'll lay down her body covering him all the same

So hundreds of years go by she's 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 can't recall what they represent and when you ask she won't know

She will betray all that she loves and even wait for their savior to come

And in some things maybe he'll be right

But as always the thing that he loves

He will change from her sunrise to clockwise to soul trading

Still she'll lay down her body covering him all the same

Oh Virginia you won't even

Oh Virginia you won't even

Oh Virginia you won't even

Oh Virginia you can't remember your name
