Charlene Kaye - Magnolia Wine lyrics

Remove me like the ring you're wearing Forget that far away I sleep Among the hordes of the memories, merlot, women's magazines And when the sun comes up tomorrow Another shady late entry Another lie among the never-saids buried in between In sorrow, spirits lure you where they want While an empty bed hands you forget me nots But come this time tomorrow, I'll be out by water, air or land No more love for nothing, no more hesitating at your hand Oh, soon I'll better fill these empty arms And you'll melt away like smoke into the dark Through the dark He smelled of fine magnolia wine and Dior Allure She'd long been up when he crept inside And then, the smash of the china plates, the zing of the cutlery Says, when we took our vows in silence I thought your hands would stay in place Thinking lines would be drawn for love, but some just never change Must you make me look down at my shoes When my mother asks benignly about you? But come this time tomorrow, I'll be out by water, air or land No more love for nothing, no more hesitating, no regrets Oh, soon I'll better fill these empty arms And you'll melt away like smoke into the dark Through the dark From flesh to blood to heart to bone
