My Southern Peach

You called me yesterday and made my day...
Isn't it great to be in love this way.

The first thing in the morning, the last thing at night...
The picture of you in my mind is never out of sight.

I smell your perfume and I begin to smile...
The thoughts of you are all worthwhile.

I try to work but you're always on my mind...
Without a doubt you're my greatest find.

Love will make you younger, this I know...
Because people tell me I look younger where I go.

I feel your nearness and a that's a good sign...
Without a doubt you're my greatest find.

Monday to Friday can be a drag...
But Saturday and Sundays on you I brag.

A walk in the park or a day at the beach...
I love spending time with my southern peach.

The first thing in the morning, the last thing at night...
Thoughts of you bring a pleasant delight.
