Song Information

A hint of autumn was in the air
Grass was turning a soft shade of brown
Petals were falling from withering flowers
Amber leaves were flowing around

There beneath the sweet magnolia
In each others arms, we lay hidden away
Our needs grew stronger as our hearts grew closer
Autumn winds blew and the magnolia swayed

Chorus:

Beneath the sweet magnolia tree
We found love we knew was for keeps
We made love and sweet memories
Beneath the sweet magnolia tree

Through the years we live over and over
The time and the place it started for us
There beneath the sweet magnolia
That long ago autumn when we fell in love

Repeat Chorus
