Brendan Benson - House In Virginia lyrics

(Benson/Falkner) House in Virginia We' love to see you, Emma Red velvet chairs for you to sit on, Emma Blue cobalt teacups every shape, every size Your favorite designs White flawed enamel pots And a place on the shelf for everything you've got When are you coming to stay? Say that you'll never go away Porch swings and everything Your favorite pets, they're everywhere Willow trees and a cool breeze Lemonade, freshly squeezed Sun-thickened linseed oil Is studio equipped for brooding Alcohol and turpentine somehow you find it soothing (chorus) She stands at the full length Admiring herself in her grandmother's hat She says, when she gets her strength She's flying away and she's never coming back I am done, I am done, I am done, I'm undone
