Almost heaven, West Virginia  
Blue Ridge Mountains  
Shenandoah River

Life is old there  
Older than the trees  
Younger than the mountains  
Growin’ like a breeze

Oh Shenandoah,  
I love your daughter,  
Away, you rolling river.  
For her I’d cross,  
Your roaming waters,  
Away, I’m bound away,  
'Cross the wide Missouri.

[Recommend linking to the song in question as a new thread meme…]

[Every little memory resting calm in me](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L5l8IPSsnpk)  
Resting in a dream  
Smiling back at me  
The faces of the past keep calling me to come back home  
To caress the river with awe  
Within there’s every little memory resting calm with me  
Resting in a dream  
Smiling back at me  
The faces of the past keep calling me to come back home  
Rest calm and remember me

I’ll see you in my dreams  
Hold you in my dreams  
Someone took you out of my arms  
Still, I feel the thrill of your charms  
Lips that once were mine  
Tender eyes that shine  
They will light our way tonight  
I’ll see you in my dreams

Only trouble is, gee whiz,  
I’m dreaming my life away.

I closed my eyes,  
Drew back the curtain  
To see for certain  
What I thought I knew.  
Far, far away  
Someone was weeping,  
But the world was sleeping  
Any dream will do.

Take a good look at my face  
You know my smile looks out of place  
If you look closer it’s easy to trace  
The tracks of my tears.

[Your words they flatter me, you fill my head with tea](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bnmnMAE0sCM)  
Please let me take it one more mile  
The Galaxy will burn if I can’t make it turn  
I hope I’m making Judy smile

Your skin like porcelain  
One pair of candy lips and  
Your bubblegum tongue

Candy on the beach, there’s nothing better  
But I like candy when it’s wrapped in a sweater  
Some day soon I’ll make you mine  
Then I’ll have candy all the time  
I want candy, I want candy, I want candy, I want candy

I smell sex and candy here  
Who’s that lounging in my chair  
Who’s that casting devious stares  
In my direction

Mama this surely is a dream  
Yeah mama this surely is a dream

On the good ship Lollipop  
It’s a sweet trip to a candy shop  
Where bonbons play  
On the sunny beach at Peppermint Bay.
