Someplace far in back of you | |
You may have known somebody who | |
Looked under what you tried to be | |
And never let you know that she | |
Could see that your ideals would only last a little while | |
Like West Virginia summer's child | |
The times are gone that brought the girl | |
Who watched me try to change the world | |
When I believed I'd write the songs | |
To point to roads of right and wrong | |
Silently she watched me try to put the world on trial | |
West Virginia summer's child | |
The night before I had to leave | |
When Denver winter stripped the trees | |
I cried all night against a nightgown sleeve | |
I only hope that she believes | |
I know what I was leaving | |
When I refuse to turn my eyes | |
From all my shabby alibis | |
And think I'm more than what I am | |
I hope she knows I'm glad I can | |
Surrender to the memory of the understanding smile | |
Of West Virginia summer's child | |
