Mississippi in the Spring

Flagstaff, Arizona on an autumn afternoon
Really don't have nothing on a day at home with you
Boston in the summer is lovely beyond compare
But my heart will be with you if you're not there

I love Mississippi in the springtime
Nothing else to do but fall in love
Even though I'll always love to travel the world
Where you are is where I'm dreaming of

It's funny that I took this job so I could see the world
I love the road but not as much as I love you, sweet girl
Even though that California coast is quite a sight
I'd rather just be looking in your eyes

I love Mississippi in the springtime
Nothing else to do but fall in love
Even though I'll always love to travel the world
Where you are is where I'm dreaming of

So take me back to Oxford in the springtime
I'll kiss you beneath those willow trees
Even though my dreams will take me far away from home
Where you are is my favorite place to be

The world is in my hand
But all I want to hold is yours
I'm happy where I stand
Just wish we weren't on separate shores

When we're back in Oxford in the springtime
I'll ask you to be forever mine
I drove from coast-to-coast and I still love you the most
I always wanna keep you by my side

I love Mississippi in the springtime
Nothing else to do but fall in love
Even though I'll always love to travel the world
Where you are is where I'm dreaming of
Where you are is where I'm dreaming of
It's where I'm dreaming of
