That Ross Collier Sound - Virginia, 1923 lyrics

[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...
