Lyrics
In the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia
Lives a girl who is waiting there for me
Many times we have waltzed in the moonlight
And in her lovely arms I long to be
I miss her smile in the moonlight
But I know she misses me too
In the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia
I know that her love for me is true
