Sweet Magnolia
Dan Fogelberg (c) 1984
Two hearts throwing off sparks
Young and in love with our freedom
Moonlight, those soft summer nights
We were both ripe to fall
I was out on my own
Playing for all who would listen
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 passion
It seemed then like they d never end
But times like that always must
cause then one day I flew
far away from you
I never knew how I d regret it
My sweet Magnolia belle
You know I loved you well
Even if I never said it
[Instrumental verse]
Magnolia, now I see
that freedom isn t free
and love s the only true redeemer
And when this journey s through
I ll be coming home for you
If you ll have this foolish dreamer
I spend a night now and then
Passing through town on my travels
But someday,
I m gonna come back to stay
Magnolia, I m coming home.
