Magnolia

Well, I heard that girls from Illinois Never go for southern boys Cause we were raised by hands we never held That didn't stop our first hello Your yellow sundress made it so I couldn't let you go for someone else I mentioned Nashville's country muse We spoke about your hometown too And even spent some time on our regrets But that small town struck a chord with me One that echoed harmony Magnolia is a place I won't forget So in spring, when they bloom, should I send a few to you? Or should I keep them for myself in the corner of my room? Cause I am so in love with you And if you feel the same way too Well then, we can live our lives together, your head on my shoulder I hope one day that I'll be your Magnolia Nashville is the place to be A town with years of history You could hear me sing our favorite songs But if you choose to walk away I won't say things to make you stay And maybe it'd be best if I moved on But in spring, when they bloom, should I send a few to you? Or should I keep them for myself in the corner of my room? 'Cause I am so in love with you And if you feel the same way too We can live our lives together, your head on my shoulder I hope one day that I'll be your Magnolia Time has passed, it's strange to me That I could still be so naive To chase a girl who barely knew my name But she showed up in Tennessee Magnolias in her hand, she speaks "I hope you know I always kept them safe" Then in spring, when they bloom, I'd pray you'd send a few So I could keep them for myself, in the corner of my room Cause I am so in love with you And if you feel the same way too We can live our lives together, my head on your shoulder I'm glad that I can call you my Magnolia" "I'm happy you could call me your Magnolia"
