Freyja, It's True

Freyja, did you hear that mockingbird singing last night?
Lady, it was singing so sweet in the moonlight.
Sitting in the magnolia tree
Busting its heart with melody.
And Freyja, my goddess, that's the way I love you.
Yes I do, you know its true.
Freyja I'd lay down and die
If I could sing like that bird sings for you.

Freyja, did you smell that honeysuckle vine last night?
Lady, it was smelling so sweet in the moonlight.
Twining 'round my front door
I reckon 'cause it loves you so.
And Freya, my goddess, that's the way I love you.
Yes I do, you know its true.
Freyja I'd lay down and die
If I could be as sweet as that to you.

Freyja, did you feel that sweet breeze blowing last night?
Lady, it was kissing you so sweet in the moonlight.
Blowing up from the old bayou
As if to say it loved you so.
And Freyja, my goddess, that's the way I love you.
Yes I do, you know its true
Freyja I'd lay down and die
If I could be that sweet breeze kissing you.
