Fake Magnolias

[Verse 1]
Why are we rushing? Let's take the long way around
Let's make use out of all this time
'Cause time is worth its weight in gold
My heart's weighing full now that you are mine

[Verse 2]
Cursed as a realist, I've never been up in the clouds
But now I'm riding high on number nine
So even if the sky is falling down and we hit the ground
We're gonna be alright

[Chorus]
And I'll fill you a jar full of fake magnolias
'Cause the real ones die too fast
I can't give you the world
But I can give you a part that's built to last
You can't have my every night
You can have the best side of the bed
I can't promise you forever
But, darling, I can promise you until I'm dead

[Verse 3]
Remember our first time when we burned the headlights out
The car fogged up and we couldn't see
I know we're way too young to have it all work now
Well, who are we kidding when we don't know how?
So just breathe, honey, just breathe

[Chorus]
And I'll fill you a jar full of fake magnolias
'Cause the real ones die too fast
I can't give you the world
But I can give you a part that's built to last
You can't have my every night
You can have the best side of the bed
I can't promise you forever
But, darling, I can promise you until I'm dead

[Bridge]
And I'll fill you a jar full of fake magnolias
And I'll fill you a jar full of fake magnolias
And I'll fill you a jar full of fake magnolias
And I'll fill you a jar

[Chorus]
And I'll fill you a jar full of fake magnolias
'Cause the real ones die too fast
I can't give you the world
But I can give you a part that's built to last
You can't have my every night
You can have the best side of the bed
Well, I can't promise you forever
But, darling, I can promise you until I'm dead

[Outro]
That I'll fill you a jar full of fake magnolias, mm
