Dan Fogelberg - Sweet Magnolia Lyrics
Two heartsThrowing off sparksYoung and in love withOur freedomMoonlight,Those soft, southern nightsWe were both ripe to fall.I wasOut on my ownPlaying for all whoWould listenYou wereAs free as a birdFlying from nest to nest.But somewhere our eyes metAnd our hands reached outAnd we felt a kindred spiritAnd as our faces touchedI could feel the fireAnd needed so to justBe near it.Oh, lordThose moments we soaredBorne on the wings ofOur passionIt seemed thenLike they'd never endBut times like thatAlways must.'cause then one day i flewFar away from youI never knew how i'd regret itMy sweet magnolia belleYou know i've loved you wellEven if i never said it.Magnolia, now i seeThat freedom isn't freeAnd love's the only trueRedeemerAnd when this journey'sThroughI'll be coming back for youIf you'll have thisFoolish dreamer.I spendA night now and thenPassing through town onMy travelsBut somedayI'm gonna come back to stayMagnolia, i'm coming home.
