Southern Nights Lyrics by Whitney

Light Upon the Lake: Demo Recordings

2015

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Southern skies
Just as good even when close your eyes
I apologize to anyone who can truly say
That he has found a better way
[Verse 3]
Feel so good, feel so good, it's frightenin'
Wish I could stop this world from fighting
La-di-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
Da-da, da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da
[Verse 3]
Southern skies
Have you ever noticed southern skies?
It's precious beauty lies just beyond the eye
It goes rushing through your soul like the stories told of old
[Verse 4]
Old man
He and his dog, they walked the old land
Every flower touched his cold hand
As he slowly walked by, the weeping willows would cry for joy
[Verse 5]
Mysteries
Like this and many others in the trees
Blow in the night
In the southern skies
[Outro]
La-la-la, la-la-la-la-la-la, la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la
