lyrics

She was summer in his soul
Their love was solid gold
She was in his mouth and in his speaking
In his mind and in his thinking

He was mystical and magical
She was captivated by his soul
With a southern drawl, lean and tall
With just one look, they launched it all

Do you know she cries in her darkest hour?
The scent of sweet and fresh magnolia fills the air
Do you know she cries when she thinks of you?
With all that’s lost, there’s nothing left for her to do

Like a cat on a hot tin roof
Careful not to burn
In the spring of better days, their tale was told in letters
Some buried; some burnt

With tradition strong and roots so deep
They knew their secret would never keep
While mockingbirds and bumblebees
Well, they live and breathe

Do you know she cries in her darkest hour?
The scent of sweet and fresh magnolia fills the air
Do you know she cries when she thinks of you?
With all that’s lost, there’s nothing left for her to do

Solo
She cries… for you
She cries… for you

There were stories told of their evening
Of their moonlight dancing and their midnight love
And a ride down that mighty river
The truth, never to be told

Under the southern sky in the summer heat
Beneath a poplar tree, once again they’d meet
Forbidden love, black and white
Young and old, bought and sold

Do you know she cries in her darkest hour?
The scent of sweet and fresh magnolia fills the air
Do you know she cries when she thinks of you?
With all that’s lost, there’s nothing left for her to do

She cries… for you
She cries… for you
