West Virginia Friend - Copyright Holly Near

Chorus
I don't want to say goodbye to you
To think that we may never meet again
Remember me, one day when you're lonely
And know you have a West Virginia Friend

I knew you were only passing through
I Knew it from the start
But sometimes there is love to spare inside this country heart
But the rain upon the old barn roof
And your North Dakota song
Will be a pleasant company for me when you're gone

Chorus
I don't want to say goodbye to you
To think that we may never meet again
Remember me, one day when you're lonely
And know you have a West Virginia Friend

Maybe I'll go rambling
When my baby's up and grown
I kinda' like the thought of traveling
Out there on my own
But I love these gentle mountains
More than strangers do
Some of us stay settled
And some of us pass through

Chorus
I don't want to say goodbye to you
To think that we may never meet again
Remember me, one day when you're lonely
And know you have a West Virginia Friend
