Magnolias Lyrics

I don't have to lie
I won't waste your time
It's just been one night

But you're all I need in the world
If you cold, just put on my shirt, girl
Baby, don't leave, 'cause I want you again
Wake up beside you again and again (woo)

Smell the fresh cut magnolias, yeah
Tell me what you want, let me spoil ya
Put you on top, I would never lower ya
And you know you're bad, know you bad
Be the waves crashing on the shore
Dig down deep to the core of ya
Organic love, straight from the soil

Do you feel the same?
I can see it on your face
So tell me why?
Can't just run away, leave today
'Cause you're all I need in this world
If you're cold, just put on my shirt, girl
Baby, don't leave 'cause I want you again
Wake up beside you again and again (woo)

Smell the fresh cut magnolias, yeah
Tell me what you want, let me spoil ya
Put you on top, I would never lower ya
And you know you're bad, know you bad
Be the waves crashing on the shore
Dig down deep to the core of ya
Organic love, straight from the soil

Do you feel the same? (Yeah)
I can see it in your face
Nothing feels better than being here with you
All I think of is what I wanna do
Wanna, baby

Smell the fresh cut magnolias, yeah (baby)
Tell me what you want, let me spoil ya (ooh baby)
Put you on top, I would never lower ya (oh)
And you know you're bad, know you bad
Be the waves crashing on the shore
Dig down deep to the core of ya
Organic love, straight from the soil
