[Verse 1]
Dearest constellation, heaven surrounding you
Stay there, soft and blue. Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight
Sweetest invitation, breaking the day in two
Feeling like I do, Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight

[Chorus]
And now our shades become shadows in your light
In the morning wind we're through and tomorrow rescues you
I will say goodnight

[Verse 2]
Secret fascination, whisper a quiet tune
Hear me calling you, Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Virginia Moon, I'll wait for you tonight

[Chorus]

[Outro]
I will say goodnight
I will say goodnight

Foo Fighters are an American rock band formed in 1995 by former Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl. Originally a solo project by him to overcome the grief of Kurt Cobain’s death, Grohl attracted label interest with his inaugural demo tape.

According to Dave Grohl, the band is named after the UFOs that were reported by Allied aircraft pilots in World War II.

I was reading a lot of books on UFOs. Not only is it a fascinating subject, but there’s a treasure trove of band names in those UFO books! So, since I had recorded the first record by myself, playing all the instruments, but I wanted people to think that it was a group, I figured that FOO FIGHTERS might lead people to believe that it was more than just one guy. Silly, huh?
