Lyrics
IIs it true that I've lost you?
Expressing doubt about the truth of losing the person addressed.
Am I not the only one?
Questioning if the speaker is the sole focus of the addressed person's affections.
After all this pain and sorrow

Darlin', think of what you've done
Encouraging the addressed person to contemplate the consequences of their actions.
Heart to heart, dear, how I need you
Expressing a deep emotional need for the addressed person.
Like the flowers need the dew

I look back to old Virginia

Where the mountains meet the skies

Let me stay there till I die
Conveying a longing for a lasting connection to the past.
