Dan Fogelberg ~ Sweet Magnolia (And The Traveling Salesman)

Dan Fogelberg ~ Sweet Magnolia from 1984 Windows And Walls Album, also included in Portrait: The Music of Dan Fogelberg From 1972-1997 (Disc 2). This is a special request by a beautiful southern belle Mariaglenn and Irving (her husband). The song & most of the beautiful images were chosen by Maria. Magnolia is used to call a pretty girl raised in the south. We would like to dedicate this video to all Dan Fans. Maria, thank you for collecting the beautiful images of the southern theme and your friendship! Irving & Maria, since you've asked, Sweet Magnolia is done especially for you, enjoy! Sweet Magnolia (And The Traveling Salesman) Lyrics: Two hearts throwing off sparks Young and in love with our freedom Moonlight, the soft southern nights We were both ripe to fall Well I was out on my own Playing for all who would listen And you were as free as a bird Flying from nest to nest But somewhere our eyes met And our hands reached out And we felt a kindred spirit And as our faces touched I could feel the fire And needed so to just be near it Oh lord, those moments we soared Borne on the wings of our passion It seemed then like they'd never end But times like that always must ' Cause then one day I flew far away from you I never knew how I'd regret it My sweet Magnolia belle you know I've loved you well Even if I never said it Magnolia, now I see that freedom isn't free And love's the only true redeemer And when this journey's through I'll be coming back for you If you'll have this foolish dreamer I spend a night now and then passing through town on my travels But someday I'm gonna come back to stay Magnolia, I'm coming home
