So you watch me float around   For two weeks straight   And the things you love will drown   With the things I hate   Oh well      It's only for a while   Until I get things right   Just let me dream all day   And stay up all night      I know what your saying   When you're not really talking right   Who are you fooling   Who      Cause I'm going forwards and   Looking backwards, Virginia   Cause I'm going forward   And looking back, West Virginia      You live, you love, you learn   You lose, you gain   And you know you'll never win   You can't even quit the game   You know you'll never win   You can't even quit the game   You know you'll never win   But you can't even quit the game      I know what you're saying   When you're not really talking right   And who are you fooling   Who      Cause I'm going forwards   And looking backwards, Virginia   Cause I'm going forwards   And looking back, West Virginia      Cause I'm going forwards   And looking backwards, Virginia   Cause I'm going forwards   And looking back, West Virginia   Cause I'm going forwards   And looking backward, Virginia   Cause I'm going forwards   And looking back, West Virginia   West Virginia
