The Scent Of Magnolia

Lyrics

In the coldest hour something's going down
 Whatever pierced the heart it didn't make a sound
 I am terrified but I'm not losing sleep
 If I'm falling then I'm falling at her feet
 I'm leaving America, I'm taking a girl
 I'm selling my soul again, I'm gaining the world
 
 Every sense defies this impossible dream
 None of the history books describe what I've seen
 The rose, the breath, the undying spark
 The lotus heart's open, embracing the dark
 The uncharted road is the not-coming-back
 The language I speak is the words that I lack
 The oncoming cars, the wedding of stars
 ♪
 Well I know your name or recognise your face
 Or by what means I'll be delivered from this place
 Here comes the gun, there goes the flash
 Once the bullet leaves it's never coming back
 ♪
 The scent of magnolia, the face of a girl
 And every detail embodies the world
 What kind of goals define this impossible dream
 None of the picture-books reflect all I've seen
 I'm leaving America, I'm taking the girls
 I'm far from the future and ambush the world
 
 The scent of magnolia, the face of a girl
 And every detail embodies the world
 What kind of goals define this impossible dream
 None of the history books describe where I've been
 I'm leaving America, I'm taking a girl
 I'm far from the future and ambush the world
