Lyrics To Magic

Posted on December 16, 2017December 17, 2017 By Priptona No Comments on Lyrics To Magic

I may have deciphered them wrong…but I took a stab at deciphering the lyrics to Magic.

Only time will tell if I have them right…but this is what I got from my two listens of the song…

Magic
Now I believe in forces
I need the truth
The reason why
Was so amazed
Such a lucky child
And then something died
Like everybody it hurt inside
And I would walk to the city
With my wounded pride
But everybody is too busy
And you’re wondering why
There’s a hole inside
I need a pill not an alibi

Now it’s all coming together
And it breaks like a storm
This is our kind of weather
Now it’s all coming together

Because now that I believe in magic
I believe in your lips
I believe things coming away
Now I believe in forces
I believe it’s all said
Nothing here can make me sway

And now that I believe in magic
Nothing can confound us
Nothing can explain away
Now I believe in forces
I believe in your steps
Taking me some other way

Lost inhibition
I’d lose my mind
Reality was no friend of mine
So I thought I knew
But everybody’s just kidding you
And I remember when I stumbled on a slippery stone
I was in the jungle and I couldn’t get home
Was in a zoo
Without a single clue

Now it’s all coming together
And it breaks like a storm
This is our kind of weather

Because now that I believe in magic
I believe in forces

I believe in magic
I believe in your lips
I believe things coming away
Now I believe in forces
I believe it’s all said
Nothing here can make me sway

And now that I believe in magic
Nothing can confound us
Nothing can explain away
Now I believe in forces
I believe in your steps
Taking me some other way

I believe in magic
I believe in forces

(Magic)
(Forces)

I believe in magic
I believe things coming away

Now I believe in forces

And now that I believe in magic
Nothing can confound us
Nothing can explain away
Now I believe in forces

(End fade)
