Magnolia Lyrics

I remember the day he brought me home

A symbol of love and how it grows

And I'll never forget her smile

As time went by and as I grew

My roots went deep and flowers bloomed

And my limbs reached to the sky

The grass beyond my shade

It grows so high

The river runs in May

By June runs dry

And nothing stays the same

Except the way he loves her

I remember the day they brought her home

A smiling baby girl named Hope

That's the first time I saw him cry

As she grew older we would play

A picnic spot a hiding place

On my branches she would climb

It seems like yesterday

My roots took hold

I've watched the children play

I've watched them grow

And nothing stays the same

Except the way they love her

I remember the day she carved that heart

A symbol of love and how it starts

And the promise they won't let go

She took his hand and he took hers

She held her breath he said those words

And pulled her close

I've seen the seasons change

My colors fall

The heat of summer days

The winters cold

But as the memories fade

As time goes on

Nothing stays the same

Except the way she loves him

Except the way she loves him
