Put down your things and rest awhile We both know where to go Yeah, daddy had to crash He was always halfway there you know And no, I don't pretend there's any more of that They say one day, you'll look up and laugh And hear the same sad echo when you walk Yeah, the same sad echo when you talk, loud and clear It's the same, it's the same sad echo around here I promise you this winter I will worship you like gold And ride your train forever Electric fortunes to be told And I don't want to question or even celebrate All the joy you took and then gave back too late It's the same sad echo when you lie It's the same sad echo when you try to be clear It's the same as the same sad echo, around here Well, I woke up right here In a pool of sweat With a box of pills and you Yeah, and I'm gonna keep my head I'm gonna keep my cool 'Cause I'm so in love with you Yes, and in another world nothing was like this There may have been a girl There never was a kiss The poison came in liquid She was naked all the time And no one could explain it It was all between the lines And I don't seem to trust anyone no more It could be faith, but now I'm not quite sure It's the same sad echo every day Yeah, the same sad echo another way It's the same sad echo when you call It's the same, it's the same sad echo, most of all Well you just got tired You just gave in You took it hard Then you just quit You let me down You dropped the ball You fell on your face most of all And I don't want to mean anything to you I don't want to tempt you to be true It's the same sad echo comin' down It's the same sad echo all around in my ears It's the same, it's the same sad echo around here

From a table across the room She was signaling me with her eyes I walked over to be introduced I said, "Hello", she just smiled And said, "I know a place Not too far from here We could get away for a while" Yeah, that's when she kissed me And told me her name I never did tell her mine Magnolia I remember the smell Of the wind through the sweet Magnolia And I know that she's out there Somewhere in the world She's forgotten me but I remember her Magnolia Well her lips were as warm As that wet southern night Her eyes were as black as the sky And I wondered aloud Just what I had done right As I lay there, with her by my side Then she took hold of my hand As she looked up at me And said, "Now I must tell you goodbye" And there in the moonlight As I watched her leave I felt a chill down inside Oh, Magnolia I remember the smell Of the wind through the sweet Magnolia And I know that she's out there Somewhere in the world She's forgotten me but I remember her Magnolia I remember the smell Of the wind through the sweet Magnolia
