The Virgin lyrics

Artist  : Gene Clark 
Song : The Virgin



 Send "The Virgin" Ringtone to your Cell 

 She went off to the city 
E B 
To find what she was looking for 
B C#m 
To identify, to really try 
E B 
To find herself some hope 
B C#m 
With the summer sun for laughing 
E 
And the winter rain did pour 
B C#m 
She was lovelier from learning 
E B 
And from living, loving more 
B C#m 
From her dancing love and young soul 
E B 
And the gypsies in her dream 
B C#m 
To the pulse of stark acceptance 
E B 
When the winds began to freeze 
C#m 
With no curfews left to hold her 
C#m E 
And no walls to shield her pain 
B C#m 
Finding out that facts were older 
E B 
And that life forms are insane. 
B C#m 
The presence of protection seemed 
E B 
To fade, as did her doubt 
C#m 
That she now was no exception 
E B 
Nor was the love who pushed her out 
 
Though the streets cried out, 
C#m 
Go, homesick 
C#m E 
Virtues strength of mind would ring 
B C#m 
In the maladies of meaning 
E B 
The sad song she learned to sing. 
B C#m 
Now, her teachers and philosophers 
E B 
And the poet`s silver throat 
C#m E B 
Are the vessels which on wisdom`s karmic ocean
she will float. 
C#m 
Was this her revolution, 
E 
Just a child in love`s crusade, 
B C#m 
With the question in her innocence 
E B 
Through the lies her eyes betrayed?
