Oh to see Those good old magnolia trees Going Home to where I ought to be So my heart can be free Where crooked roads and open fields Make the wildflowers grow To the the life I know Like a bird, I want to fly away And find those summer days I am leaving today I think I'll fly away To that magnolia to stay Under the wild magnolia tree I was holding you close to me We carved our names for all to see My heart knows your the one for me Under those white blossoms Is where I need to be So wait for me Like a bird, I want to fly away And find those summer days I am leaving today I think I'll fly away To that magnolia to stay
