Now that the magic has gone



In my life I've seen sorrow Heartache and pain I've been burned by the sunshine And drowned in pouring rain Had too many lovers And enough love I've been trialed and convicted For things I'm not guilty of I was locked in a prison Till you came and set me free So how can you say You're no good for me Now that the magic has gone You just wanna walk away Nothing left to say, anyway Now that the magic has gone There's no sense in holding on Baby now, now that the magic is gone You know love can be tender Love can be cruel It can smile like an angel While it treats you just like a fool it captures and haunts you Until you give in And it stats the dice against you in a game you never can win Just when I was thinking Maybe luck was here with me You're telling me it's over Say it's time for breaking free Now that the magic has gone You just wanna walk away Nothing left to say Anyway baby Now that magic has gone There's no sense in holding on Baby now Now that the magic has gone I won't try to hold you down My mind tells me let go But my heart keeps asking how There's no prices for the loser Only the winner takes the purse Some say that love is a blessing But to me it's just a curse Now that the magic has gone You just wanna walk away Nothing left to say Ain't it babe Now that the magic has gone There's no sense in holding on Baby, now that the magic has gone Now that the magic has gone You just wanna walk away Nothing left to say
