Sweet Magnolia His things are scattered everywhere Your prince charming So f**in' poised, so debonair The telephone It rings and rings but no one's there I ran away I ran away I ran away Once I promised you my love But that was not enough Tonight down by the street He's waiting patiently Wish I'd still love you but I don't You turned my heart to stone And though I hate to go It's only tears you know Your ocean's too wide I'm drowning here tonight We're floating in a darkness Where the cold begins to bite There will be no tomorrow No turning of the tide A deep blue sea keeps calling Submerging open-eyed She's calling me
Her flowers washed down by the rain "I'll wait for thee" No sleep, no rest, no longer sane But don't you feel The loss, the pain: it's so inane No longer mine No longer mine No longer mine I'm so confused, I can't recall Where did we stumble, did we fall? I'm frightened and I cry 'Cause our love has died tonight You're lost and now you crawl With your back against the wall Why did you leave me? Why did you leave me? Your ocean's too wide I'm drowning here tonight We're floating in a darkness Where the cold begins to bite There will be no tomorrow No turning of the tide A deep blue sea keeps calling Submerging open-eyed
