Things have got to change that is what you said
And then you got a call and now you've got to leave
And although we cry our hearts are full
So full to the brim until we meet again

We fell in love under the magnolia tree again
We fell in love under the magnolia tree again

I will send you pictures of our magnolia tree
Of how it blooms in spring and how the blackbirds sing
And although we cry our hearts are full
So full to the brim until we meet again
Oh, baby I'll miss you

We fell in love under the magnolia tree again
We fell in love under the magnolia tree again

In the morning hours when the city starts to wake
When we're strolling through the park and we share a piece of cake
I kiss you in the afternoon and we have a cup of tea
Then we watch the Sun go down we hold hands and fall asleep

We fell in love under the magnolia tree again
We fell in love under the magnolia tree again
