Virginia
I sit down across from her, she's stuck in a paperback
I can see her mind's lost, head's down, legs crossed
She's got nothing at all in common with me
Then the train pulls out from another stop
The sunlight bounces off my coffee cup
Straight into her eyes, and she blinks temporarily
And it makes her look up, see that she's not alone
Her broken look makes me think, she's a long way form home
She decides to speak, where you going
I say to her, Virginia Water
She says I'm going there too
It's been a while since I've seen my daughter
She puts the book away and smiles to me
As the train pulls into platform number three
She says, oh we're here. We could've talked more along the way
I said, it's better some than none
Who knows, maybe we'll talk another day
And it makes her look up, see that she's not alone
Her broken look makes me think, she's a long way form home
We step off the train, the weather changes so fast here
It starts to rain, and people run from the water
She finds shelter in the arms of Virgina, her daughter
She finds comfort in the arms of Virgina
I can see her mind's lost, head's down, legs crossed
She's got nothing at all in common with me
Then the train pulls out from another stop
The sunlight bounces off my coffee cup
Straight into her eyes, and she blinks temporarily
And it makes her look up, see that she's not alone
Her broken look makes me think, she's a long way form home
She decides to speak, where you going
I say to her, Virginia Water
She says I'm going there too
It's been a while since I've seen my daughter
She puts the book away and smiles to me
As the train pulls into platform number three
She says, oh we're here. We could've talked more along the way
I said, it's better some than none
Who knows, maybe we'll talk another day
And it makes her look up, see that she's not alone
Her broken look makes me think, she's a long way form home
We step off the train, the weather changes so fast here
It starts to rain, and people run from the water
She finds shelter in the arms of Virgina, her daughter
She finds comfort in the arms of Virgina
