You Are My Southern Girl

Close now your eyes, love
Let me handle what you’ve got
Tell me the reason who
Your heart is tied in knots
All I can understand is what you show me
So hold onto me
For you are my southern girl
I just want to love you, babe
I just want to love you, honey
Open your eyes, love
Let me show you what we’ve got
Something we could’ve done?
Maybe so, maybe not
Here is where we understand what only time can show
So hold onto me
For you are my southern girl
I just want to love you, babe
I just want to love you, honey
Hold onto me
For you are my southern girl
I just want to love you, babe
I just want to love you, honey
Oh, how the fallen snow
Can be so cold, so cold
But not enough to dull the pain
How hard I try
Hoping you and I can let go, let go
Of what only God and Mother Nature know
(You are my southern girl)
So bright under northern light
Star falls, new life
So bringing hope before
We are reborn
Love only you and I know
So hold onto me
For you are my southern girl
I just want to love you, babe
I just want to love you, honey
Hold onto me
For you are my southern girl
I just want to love you, babe
I just want to love you, honey
