Mississippi Lyrics
They call her Mississippi
But she don't flow to me
Spends her light on the Bayou
But she don't conversate
She's the one that makes my dreams
They call her Mississippi
But she don't flow to me
The shape of her horizon
Makes the morning sun
When she puts her eyes on
Each and anyone
She's the one that makes me fall
Midnight moon shines through it all
She's the one that makes me fall
Midnight moon shines through it all
She's the one that makes my dreams
They call her Mississippi
But she don't flow to me
They call her Mississippi
But she don't flow to me
But she don't flow to me
Spends her light on the Bayou
But she don't conversate
She's the one that makes my dreams
They call her Mississippi
But she don't flow to me
Makes the morning sun
When she puts her eyes on
Each and anyone
She's the one that makes me fall
Midnight moon shines through it all
Midnight moon shines through it all
She's the one that makes my dreams
They call her Mississippi
But she don't flow to me
They call her Mississippi
But she don't flow to me

I thought it was about a girl for a long time but kinda switched over to the river idea. I traveled to the Mississippi river and made it to the shores really late at night after a pretty long road trip with my friend. We put the song on and drove as close to the river as we could and it just fit perfectly. You just have to see the river reflect the full moon ...
they call her mississippi( meaning to me this girl is amazing and has a powerful name the kind of name that makes feel when u hear it)
but she dont flow to me( to me this beautiful girl has no intrest in him much less know he's there)
spends her light on the bayou, but see dont come see me( this girl goes out and spends her time and beauty out not w him),(meaning she doesnt hang out w him and probly doesnt even know him)
She's the one that makes my dreams(means that she is all he dreams of)
The shape of her horizon Makes the morning sun( the shape of her body the curves in her figure makes is so beautiful it makes his days that much brighter)
When she puts her eyes on Each and anyone( when she's dressed up and make up, each anyone would love to have her)
She's the one that makes me fall Midnight moon shines through it all (thats the girl that makes him feel the butterflies, makes him feel love hence fall in love.. midnight moon isnt every night but if u get lucky and see thru the light u can def tell that he wants her that way cause hes trying not to be obvious duh lol thats why the song sounds like a song about a river... really a song about a river? i mean i can see a song about a state or drugs but rivers.. grow up this guys is def in love and made a badass song, mad props, today is the first time i hear it its on my itunes now thks.. ezie
this song is talking about this girl who he thinks is the perfect match for him she is so beautiful. Everyone sees it and acknowledges her beauty, but as hard as he tries he cannot make her his.
To me, this is a song about someone to good for you. She has her own path, and doesn't stop. You intrigure her for a spell, but she must move on. It's nothing against you just her nature. Be thankful for the break in the storm and look back fondly on the memories, but she is no ones but her own.
excellent song... one worth listening too. It has that flow to it that makes you listen.
This song is so beautiful and relaxing...it reminds me of this road trip I took with my friend last summer..
I think this song is about the actual river.
i think it can just have the duel meaning, like comparing a love to the river. she's as beautiful as the mississippi, she's the the moon reflected off it and all, but he can flow down the river, but she wont flow to him. He can't have her. beautiful song tho, very emotional
I think this song is predominately reffering to the Mississippi River. This is one of my all-time favorite songs.
makes me think of summer. when all the stars are out. and those nights you spend with that one person. but you can't tell them how you feel; it wil ruin it. but then again, some of the things they did already have.
