Magic

Magic
When did the magic disappear?
How did we get from there to here?
I didn’t see it coming
I didn’t see it going
But that it’s gone is very clear

No smoke, no mirrors, no goodbye
There is no telling how or why
Last thing I knew you loved me
Next thing I knew you left me
The heart is quicker than the eye
A door didn’t close and a key didn’t turn,
Not a sound, not a sigh, not a clue.
Were your arms, were your eyes,
Were your lips full of lies,
Was it all just an act, only pure illusion?
You are a master of the art
You had me fooled right from the start
And though you left me sadder
You also left me wiser
I’ll take less chances with my heart
When did the magic disappear?
How did we get from there to here?
I didn’t see it coming
I didn’t see it going
I guess it happened all too fast
I’ve had the hocus pocus
I’ve had the razzle-dazzle
I want the magic that will last!
