Artist/Band: The Ark
Lyrics for Song: A Virgin Like You
Lyrics for Album: In Lust We Trust [2002]



I have never been mean

Never been as bad as it may have seemed

I have never been vile

Never been twisted or unkind



Maybe I'm working too hard

Maybe I'm out of my mind

Maybe there will be a day

'Cause I've been losing my way

For such a very long time

That now I no longer know

Where to go



Oh, I wish I was a virgin

A virgin like you

I wish I had a distance

To put me through

I wish I had a burden

Wish that I had a dream

I wish I was as simple as you seem



Here we go again

When every direction leads to pain

And the one left I know

Is the one that I'm most certain

I don't want to go



Maybe there will be a day

Maybe I'm out of my head

Maybe love wasn't for us

'Cause I've been losing my touch

For such a very long time

That now I no longer know

Very much at all



I wish I was a virgin

A virgin like you

I wish I had a distance

To put me through

I wish I had a burden

Wish that I had a dream

I wish I was as simple as you seem



There was a time when I was a man

And everything was easy to understand

But now I'm floating like a shipwreck

Shrunk to fit in a foreign land



I have never been mean,

Never been as bad as it may have seemed


A Virgin Like You

A Virgin Like You stands as a defining track from The Ark's 2002 album, In Lust We Trust. Emerging from the Swedish garage rock revival, the band crafted a sound deeply rooted in 1960s British Invasion aesthetics while maintaining a modern edge. This recording captures their signature blend of melodic hooks and energetic instrumentation, showcasing the vocal charisma that would later propel them to wider acclaim. The song reflects the group's early commitment to classic rock structures, delivered with a sense of urgency and youthful exuberance. As part of their initial discography, it highlights the band's ability to reinterpret vintage styles for contemporary audiences, establishing a foundation for their subsequent releases and enduring influence within the garage rock genre.
