See You in Savannah

I once went to this gorgeous Georgian southern town replete with southern belles and only came away with this song. Darn!

SONG LYRICS

I never found love in a drive-in movie
I never found love in a magazine
I never found love with some back street fluzie
and if you’re one then you know what I mean…

But there's a jewel spared the fire
shining through the willow trees
where to ever see that look in your eyes
is to find the love that’s long awaited me…
and I’ll see you in Savannah!

I looked for love at the end of a lonely highway
I looked for love at a church bazaar
I came close once on a crowded subway
but she was a he and we didn't get far

But there's a jewel spared the fire
where the sweetest peaches grow
where to ever see that look in your eyes
is to taste the sweetest peach, I know…
and I'll see you in Savannah!

There's a jewel spared the fire
where the river steamers glide
where to ever see that look in your eyes
is to ‘up and ready for the ride…
Just to see you in Savannah!

I never found love in a drive-in movie
I never found love in a magazine
I never found love with some back street fluzie
If you’re one then you know what I mean…

But there's a jewel spared the fire
shining through the willow trees
where to ever see that look in your eyes
is to find the love that’s long awaited me…
And so I’ll see you in Savannah!
