Two hearts, throwing off sparks
Young and in love with our freedom
Moonlight, those soft Southern nights
We were both ripe to fall
Well, I was out on my own
Playing for all who would listen
And you were as free as a bird
Flying from nest to nest
But somewhere our eyes met
And our hands reached out
And we felt a kindred spirit
And as our faces touched
I could feel the fire
And needed so to just be near it
Oh, Lord, those moments we soared
Borne on the wings of our pa**ion
It seemed then like theyd never end
But times like that always must
Cause then one day I flew far away from you
I never knew how Id regret
My sweet Magnolia belle, you know Ive loved you well
Even if I never said it
Magnolia, now I see
That freedom isnt free
And loves the only true redeemer
And when this journeys through
Ill be coming back for you
If youll have this foolish dreamer
I spend a night now and then
Pa**ing through town on my travels
But someday Im gonna come back to stay
Magnolia, Im coming home
