The Scent Of Magnolia |
| In the coldest hour something’s going down |
| Whatever pierced the heart it didn’t make a sound |
| I am terrified but I’m not losing sleep |
| If I’m falling then I’m falling at her feet |
| I’m leaving America, I’m taking a girl |
| I’m selling my soul again, I’m gaining the world |
| Every sense defies this impossible dream |
| None of the history books describe what I’ve seen |
| The rose, the breath, the undying spark |
| The lotus heart’s open, embracing the dark |
| The uncharted road is the not-coming-back |
| The language I speak is the words that I lack |
| The oncoming cars, the wedding of stars |
| Well I know your name or recognise your face |
| Or by what means I’ll be delivered from this place |
| Here comes the gun, there goes the flash |
| Once the bullet leaves it’s never coming back |
| The scent of magnolia, the face of a girl |
| And every detail embodies the world |
| What kind of goals define this impossible dream |
| None of the picture-books reflect all I’ve seen |
| I’m leaving America, I’m taking the girls |
| I’m far from the future and ambush the world |
| The scent of magnolia, the face of a girl |
| And every detail embodies the world |
| What kind of goals define this impossible dream |
| None of the history books describe where I’ve been |
| I’m leaving America, I’m taking a girl |
| I’m far from the future and ambush the world |
