Metal Magnolia

I watch you – a bright burning flame
I feel you – you drive me insane
When you move like shades in the night
Unreal like a trick of the light
You touch me and i nearly come
You're stirring and all hope is gone
You're gentle as a rosebud
And you're as tough as steel
A benchmark in the chaos
An ever turning wheel
Fire at night, shadow at daylight
That's what you'll always be
Fire at night, shadow at daylight
The other side of me
You teil my friends i'm gorgeous
Get me a fresh cold beer
You chew me out at random
No chance to get it clear
My metal magnolia
My counterpart
My metal magnolia
Unpredictable
My metal magnolia
You counterweight my soul
But anly in my garden
Magnolia grows
You're hot when i am freezing
Say "yes!" when i say: "no!"
You're canny when i'm furious
I stop and you say: "go!"
Fire at night, shadow at daylight
That's what you'll always be
Fire at night, shadow at daylight
The other side of me
I'd really love to kick you
You're my addictive drug
My intellectual challenge
The socket for my plug
My metal magnolia
My counterpart
My metal magnolia
Unpredictable
My metal magnolia
You counterweight my soul
But anly in my garden
Magnolia grows
My metal magnolia
My counterpart
My metal magnolia
Unpredictable
My metal magnolia
You counterweight my soul
But anly in my garden
Magnolia grows
I watch you – a bright burning flame
I feel you – you drive me insane
You touch me and i nearly come
You're stirring and all hope is gone
My metal magnolia
My counterpart
My metal magnolia
Unpredictable
My metal magnolia
You counterweight my soul
But anly in my garden
Magnolia grows
My metal magnolia
My counterpart
My metal magnolia
Unpredictable
My metal magnolia
You counterweight my soul
But anly in my garden
Magnolia grows
