Testo Magnolia

I met you in a parking lot
It was late in December 2005
I was coming down from a 3 day high
You say you came up in a one horse town
Well baby, I grew up in the gamble house
It was meant to be
We were made to be broken
That's when you said you love for me
Was like a magnolia tree
Strong and tall and as real as the breath in my lungs
Well Magnolia, don't you know
That the love we had's grown cold
So won't you come back around
And we can set it on fire tonight
We used to stay up late
And get loud in the streets
We got arrested for possession by the police
But you can tell the law
To just leave us alone
Cause now I'm working the ocean
And paying my dues
They took everything I had
But they can't have you
Cause I'm heading back
Coming back to Carolina
And now you're sitting crosslegged on the front porch
Lighting your cigarette with a butane torch
And I'm sitting there inside all alone with the radio
Well Magnolia, don't you know
That the love we had's grown cold
So won't you come back around
And we can set it on fire tonight
Oh Magnolia, my love's gotten cold
So won't you come back around
And we can set it on fire tonight
