Carson McHone - Sweet Magnolia

So I grew up some when I gave up some now I know it only matters how you fall
And I have known love and I have seen it torn apart before my eyes and I know how to cry

Sweet magnolia I long to hold ya but Tennessee was only pushing time
Sweet magnolia I thought I told ya that I would listen as I never have before
But you don't sing to me no more

Keep your smile it's out of style and if you ain't bitter yet well give it time and quiet now and
Hold your tongue against the aching of your thoughts you won't bring back what you've lost

Sweet magnolia I long to hold ya but Tennessee she's only back in time
Sweet magnolia I thought I told ya that I would listen as I never have before
But you don't speak to me no more

There is morning there is evening but there ain't time enough for feeling this way
So pardon me I was just leaving with my heart we're out the door we don't live here anymore
So I grew up some when I gave up some
