Lyrics

Southern nights Have you ever felt a southern night? Free as a breeze Not to mention the trees Whistling tunes that you know and love so. Southern nights Just as good even when closed yours eyes. I apologize to anyone who can truly say That he has found a better way Southern skies Have you ever noticed southern skies? It's precious beauty lies just beyond the eye. It goes running through your soul Like the stories told of old Old man He and his dog that walked the old land Every flower touched his cold hand. As he slowly walked by Weeping willows Would cry for joy, joy Feel so good Feel so good It's frightening. Wish I could stop this world from fighting. La da da da da da la da da da da da da da da . . . Mysteries like this and many others in the trees Blow in the night In the southern skies. Southern nights They feel so good it's frightening . . .
