Oldies - 1970s tune


Expert: Amarilis Gibeli - 10/1/2008

Question
Help! I have been searching for YEARS for the name and artist of a tune I heard in the early 1970s(71-72). What I remember of the lyrics are:
Virginia, be strong,
cause I won't be long,
Virginia, hold on.
I left one morning
in the pouring rain
and from the train I watched you disappear.....
I have searched oldies lists, one-hit-wonder lists and called oldies radio stations. All to no avail.
Any information you can give would be most appreciated.
Thanks again,
David

Answer
Hi David,

Thanks for your attention, and please, Aceept my apologies for the delay in getting back to you, but my operation system was at fault for the last 4 days.

Unfortunately, I can`t recall any song with those lyrics, it`s a very hard-to-find item, indeed.

If you need anything else, please feel free to get in touch,

my regards,

Amarilis Gibeli - "Searchin` around..."
