In The Valley by Matthew E. White Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I've been in the valley so long
Generations coming on and generations gone
Mama will you love me
When the shadows grow tall?
Mama will you love me
When we don't have shadows at all?

[Chorus]
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me
Try to understand it
But so far I haven't found any key
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me

[Verse 2]
I've been in the wilderness all day
Thе civilized towering, and civilizations sway
Mama, when I drop thе phone
You know that I will fade
Mama, when I drop the phone
You know that I have gone
[Chorus]
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me
Try to understand it
But so far I haven't found any key
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me

[Verse 3]
Will we ever celebrate everlasting calm?
Will we ever know ourselves
As we pass through and on?
Mama when you touch the land
And the shadows grow tall
Know that it's the ground alone
That accepts us one and all

[Chorus]
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me
Try to understand it
But so far I haven't found any key
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me
[Chorus]
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me
Try to understand it
But so far I haven't found any key
Shenandoah Valley
Yeah you've really got a hold on me
