Lyrics

Sweet Magnolia Wind
Comin' Round the Bend
You breathe out all the lights
On this Mississippi Night

Sweet old perfumed breeze
It brings me to my knees
I can hear the trumpets soar
It makes me want you more


Chorus:
It could have been anyone
It could have been anyone but you
You’ll find in the night when the moon is high
These nights aren’t that long anymore

There’s legs on the levy’s height
The cheapest love will last you through the night
The neon’s on at dusk
Soothsayers spread their musk

I can’t smell you anymore
It faded away as the vines crept round my door
They grew over your stone
I smell flowers all alone

I don't know where you are tonight
Stay there love - I will be alright
You’ll find in the night when the moon is high
These nights aren’t that long anymore

Sweet magnolia wind…
