Magnolia Moon lyrics

Magnolia moon in June, movin' through the trees over me. 
Takes me back to the days when we were young again, 
remember when. 
You were with me almost all the time, and you were always 
such a champion by my side. 
Gone are the dawns as if they never came. The sandy lane 
keeps a-callin' just the same. 
And your name is still remembered when the friends 
jubilee. 
And you should see the sweet magnolias in the lane. 

Magnolia moon will soon be shining one last time just for 
me. 
Through the night like a beacon beyond the hill of time 
when you were mine. 
And oh such a painting in southern skies, like the eyes 
of my darlin' in surprise.

Gone with the dawn, immortal face in time. 
Like the blue-green of the bayou, you were mine. 
And your shrine is with these people, they'll forever see 
your light. 
And you should smell the sweet magnolias in the night.
