    Lyrics:
    Magnolia
    She could have anyone in the world
    Floats around town in a golden gown
    Born in a castle on a cloud
    Magnolia
    Prettiest girl that I know
    Stars in her eyes
    Hand picked from the skies
    Beautiful soul
    How can I compete with her
    Perfection is the only word
    I think of when i think of Magnolia
    She doesn’t know that the world is turning just for her
    I wish I could be Magnolia
    Magnolia
    She can move oceans and rivers with ease
    A word from her lips
    Her sirens kiss
    Will send you straight into abyss
    Magnolia
    I wish she’d give her secrets away
    Enchants everyone
    And I think it’d be fun
    To be like her someday
    But I cannot compete with her
    Perfection is the only word
    I think of when I think of Magnolia
    She doesn’t know that the world is turning just for her
    I wish I could be Magnolia
    Magnolia

    Magnolia
    she could have anyone in the world
    Floats around town in a golden gown
    Born in a castle on a cloud
    Magnolia
    prettiest girl that I know
    Stars in her eyes, handpicked from the sky
    Beautiful soul
    How can I compete with her
    Perfection is the only word
    I think of when I think of Magnolia
    She doesn't know that the world is turning just for her
    I wish I could be Magnolia
    ooooh.... haaa ooooh....
    Magnolia
    she can move oceans and rivers with ease
    A word from her lips
    Her sirens kiss
    Will send you straight into abyss
    Magnolia
    I wish she’d give her secrets away
    Enchants еveryone
    And I think it’d be fun
    To bе like her someday
    But I cannot compete with her
    Perfection is the only word

    She doesn’t know that the world is turning just for her
    I wish I could be Magnolia

      She does not belong in this ugly and depraved decade.
      In the 50s she would have been a super star, she is in the same league as Ella Fitzgerald, Peggy Lee or Nat King Cole.
      Her beautiful voice is a mixture between Jo Stafford and June Christy.
