lyrics

Opened up with some holes in his chest
Pete shocked all of his family.
They didn't expect to see him dead
despite the mortuary.
How could he end up like this?
He was always full of life.
No friends, good job, no girlfriend,
offed with a kitchen knife.

Oh, Virginia,
you've broken my heart.
I'm coming to see you long before the winter starts.
You tell me everything I want to hear
when I get there
and for now I'll pass the time without you here.

Don't forget her warning to him;
stay back, don't get any closer.
She would not let him in,
stay back don't get any closer.
He hummed a silent hymn,
you're okay, come closer.
He felt inside he'd win,
okay, come closer.

She feigned interest and gazed at the stucco
like a mountain range on his ceiling.
Thank God you're nothing like her
this ship is more than feeling.
I'm sending out a telegram to tell
our time apart to burn in hell,
if the messenger's shot, then that's alright,
so long as you'll be with me tonight.
Be with me tonight.

There's something in the air this spring,
and never have I felt something,
so strong as the messages
carried in this year's pollen.
They tell me I don't know a thing;
maybe they're right, still take my ring.
Virginia, please, no longer break my heart.
