Emily Woodhull - Virginia, I'm Home Lyrics

I was just 18, when I came rolling in
Opened up your doors and took me in just like a friend
Didn't know where I was from, didn't even know my name
But you treated me like one of your daughters just the same

I grew up far from here, underneath the city lights
I'm still not used to seeing all these stars come out at night
I finally found a place
I feel like I can breathe
Its where I'm putting down my roots
Cause I don't wanna leave

From the valley to the hills
Driving through the Shenandoah
I could spend forever
Just getting to know ya
Sign says it's for lovers
No more will I roam
Virginia, Virginia, I'm Home

I wanna get lost in the sunsets, high up on Blue Ridge
Fall in love, find a piece of land where we can raise our kids
I'm floating like a feather in the Appalachian wind
It's the closest to heaven that I've ever been

From the valley to the hills
Driving through the Shenandoah
I could spend forever
Just getting to know ya
Sign says it's for lovers
No more will I roam
Virginia, Virginia, I'm Home

Nowhere in the world, that I'd rather be
Every trip around the sun, you know where to find me

From the valley to the hills
Driving through the Shenandoah
I could spend forever
Just getting to know ya
Sign says it's for lovers
No more will I roam
Virginia, Virginia, I'm Home
