Whoever She Is, In Wherever She Is Virginia

What was it you said
The night we went and watched the parade
Something along the lines
Of words I’ve heard a thousand times
Of just how tired you are of life marching right on past you

Well, haven’t I told you
How I’ve felt the same feeling that’s anchoring you now
How I’ve sang that old same song
The one that’s so sad, but never long enough
To capture the essence of what’s been missing all along

Love is untouchable baby
Love is untouchable
Love is
Love
And, love is what’s going to save us

Once I was the kid who couldn’t throw enough money into the wishing water
And, all it got me was an empty wallet, or
At least I used to believe those things
But, now I know that it was simply time, and hope, and faith that brought her to me
And, it wouldn’t have mattered if I’d given another penny
It wouldn’t have brought her any sooner to me

Love is unwishable baby
Love is unwishable
Love is
Love
And, love knows just when to swoop down and save us

So, tell me once again
Just what it was I heard you say, cause

Love is inescapable baby
Love is inescapable
Love is
Love
And, love is what I feel for whoever she is, in wherever she is Virginia
